Next Level Horsemanship ^TM will helping to make dreams come true for two families this year.  Owning an American Mustang is a childhood dream of many horse lovers but gentling those horses and making that dream a reality can be a challenge for those who don’t have the facilities or the experience needed to handle a wild horse.

Now, Next Level Horsemanship^TM will make that dream come true for two families in Pennsylvania by gentling and training their newly adopted mustangs this May.  The adoption will take place in April and the horses will be eligible to compete in the Supreme Extreme Mustang Makeover in Fort Worth, TX in September.

Good new for NLH^TM fans!  We will open our doors for everyone to follow the progress of our mustangs!  Look for upcoming clinics that will involve their gentling and training – and follow their progress online.  You can vote for our mustangs then in the ‘fan-favorite’ competition at Fort Worth! Stay tuned for updates!

The Lloyds: After many years away from the horse world, I was considering getting involved again. Through a mutual friend, I became aware of Suzanne and the wonderful work she is doing at Next Level Horsemanship. I was fortunate enough to attend a lecture and subsequent demonstration she was doing with her mustangs. It was wonderful to witness first-hand the communication and bond between Suzanne, Lauren, Brooke and their horses.  After several discussions, visits to her barn, and much research, our family has decided to adopt a mustang and participate in the Extreme Supreme Mustang Challenge. We are so excited to begin this journey with Suzanne and our new horse. I think that this will be a summer we will never forget!  ~Leslie, Kevin, Elena and Grace

The Soergels: Hi! My name is Mary Kay Soergel.  I have been asked to write about my involvement in the up coming Mustang Extreme Supreme Makeover. I have known Lauren Ross since her days in Jr. High School, as a very good friend to my daughter, Meredith. Lauren worked for our family farm during High School, where she met her husband, Joe (our wholesale mgr). She bought her first horse,Turbo from me (after he dumped my husband 3 times!).

It has been exciting to watch her career blossom from a new horse owner to a first rate trainer. Lauren is a confident, caring horsewoman who enriches the lives of the horses she trains. We are very excited to be able to share this endeavor with her.

The Mustang is a beautiful symbol that represents everything good about the country I love. I am honored to be a part of supporting their heritage. We hope to eventually introduce a trained Mustang into our riding program. I currently teach obstacle- based horsemanship. We stress a relationship of trust and respect between horse and rider as they learn to navigate through obstacles, in hand and mounted.  This may be a competition, but if we can adopt a mustang and work with Lauren, we consider ourselves winners just to be involved!
