Todd Martin Performance Horses specializes in the versatile reining horse

The following is a series of articles that I have written that are published in different equine publications. They are all related to different aspects of horse training and horses. Reining training will translate to many disciplines, because so many use different aspects of reining required for the reining competition. I enjoy teaching and firmly believe in giving more education to the horse community. We hope you enjoy the articles.
