Q: How can I find John Lyons horse trainers near me in Rochester, NY?
A: Individual listings indicate whether each horseman is certified by famous trainers such as John Lyons, Richard Shrake and Pat Parelli—or if they're "independent operators." Click on the links in the left column, "New York" in this case, for a city-by-city listing of pro horse trainers near you.

Q: How do I locate a good horse trainer in Florida?
A: Clicking on "Florida" will bring you to a directory of horse training professionals in Florida. Make sure you ask for references - and call those prior clients before trying out any trainer. Remember, more often than not, saving a few pennies up front (on a fly-by-night so-called "pro") will cost you in the long run. How much do broken ribs cost these days in terms of hospital bills and lost work?

An excerpt:

Now, try mounting up again. Does the horse move off or stand there? (If this is an ingrained habit, then it might take a combined half hour - or half hours plural - so be patient. It took the horse weeks, months or even years to pick up this habit - so curing it in an hour or two is a real bargain.) If he moves off, back off and go back to your ground work (it doesn't have to be the same moves). If he stands politely, then put a little pressure in the saddle as if to climb up - then don't. Instead, back off, pet him and relax for a moment. Getting on board right away - when that's what he's been trying to avoid - won't come off as much of a reward to your horse. Reinforce that it's really a good idea to stand still by taking a break for a moment or two, then act as if you're going to mount up again. So, the sequence: You act as if to mount. If he moves, you move his hips and walk him back and forth for several minutes (remember to be objective!) and then try again. If he stands, you "almost mount" then pet him, take a break and practice again. Keep at it like this until common sense tells you that he's decided to stand for you to mount - and then do so. But… get on your horse and hop back off after just a moment, specifically doing so before he can move off. If he moves once you’re up there, stop him, get back off and either fall back in your training - or get off quicker the next time if you think you can do so before he moves. (Also see tomorrow's edition for further remedies for working from the horse's back.) All we're looking for today, is for you to get on and off the horse before it moves off on its own. In the coming days, when you feel that the horse has learned to stand, you can ride off. Until then, fall back to rehearsing what you've learned here.
