Good horse training isn’t about avoiding problems, it’s about creating the right ones.

Every time you step into the pen, you’re either building confidence or chipping away at it. The difference is in how you set the problem up. When the pressure is clear, the release is fair, and the ask is within reach, you’re not just teaching a maneuver. You’re teaching your horse how to try. You’re showing them that working through pressure leads somewhere good.

That’s the foundation everything else is built on.
A finished horse isn’t made in one big moment. It’s made in a thousand small ones… a thousand little yes’s stacked on top of each other.

Yes, I’ll yield that shoulder.

Yes, I’ll soften to the bit.

Yes, I’ll step under and push.

Yes, I trust where you’re pointing me.

Each one feels small. Each one is small. But string enough of them together and you don’t just have a horse that does the job. You have a horse that wants to do the job. A horse that shows up soft, willing, and ready to try.

That’s what we’re building at Nix Performance Horses. Not perfection from day one. Just the next yes.

The Nixes just being the Nixes 🫶🏻

What makes for a successful photo session?

A lot of times I hear “I don’t know how to pose myself.” And honestly, poses are a good place to start and I am here to help with that, but the best photos are ones where you take what I give you and make it your own. When you just “be.” Staged photos can be nice, but there’s something special about me documenting you being YOU!

How truly amazing it is that God made such a beautiful creation for us to enjoy…. Happy Earth Day 🌎

—You’re not going to ruin your horse.—

That fear of doing it wrong, of setting them back, of “messing them up” keeps a lot of people stuck on the sidelines or second-guessing every move.

—Here’s the truth: horses aren’t that fragile.—

If you have spent the money on a good foundation of training with a good c**t starter and you are the one that’s going to be riding in whatever discipline…

—Then YOU need to be riding that sucker!—

That doesn’t mean you don’t need a trainer or guidance. A trainer can help set your horse up for success and show you the mechanical steps to achieve the maneuvers… but first you have to get rid of the “messing them up” mentality. That uncertainty in yourself is what’s really setting you and your horse back.

—You need to approach your horse everyday with confidence and consistency.—

Horses are looking for a calm, consistent, fair leader. You need to be that. You don’t need the most precise cues, or the best feel. Just clear communication… Once you get that, everything else will begin to fall into place.

—That’s where we come in.—

At Nix Performance Horses, we don’t just train horses—we help owners understand them. Whether you’re showing or just trying to get a better handle at home, we bridge the gap between professional training and real-world riding.

You don’t need to be perfect.
You need the right guidance.

—Stop riding scared.
Start riding with a plan.—

-Coby & Baby Nix 😉
