I am excited to announce that I am going full time as a trainer and instructor at Great Returns Stables. At this time I offer horse training, lessons, and clinics. Right now my very limited boarding is full and I have no plans to open it up to the public in the future.

For those that aren’t familiar with me or Great Returns Stables, my name is Michaela Pemberton and I am located in Darmstadt, IN. I have experience in several disciplines but I am focusing my training on groundwork, colt starting, general horsemanship, and versatile ranch horses. I have an Equestrian Science degree from Black Hawk College where I furthered my education and showed on the IHSA team. I also completed an internship with a reining and cowhorse trainer and I continue to learn everyday with an open mind.

My lesson and training schedule was full but now it is opening up again with me going full time. I do not have any requirement for the amount of lessons or training sessions you take. If it only takes one session to help you and/or your horse, then one session is all you need. Great Returns Stables is here to help you regardless of your background and we will fit to your needs while giving you real results.

My goal is to have a positive impact on the horse industry in our area. I would love to see it grow and equestrians work together as a team to build our industry, not pull each other down.

I have to end with a huge thank you, first to my husband, Tommy Pemberton who has supported my dreams and goals from day one. Another big thank you to my existing clients, thanks for trusting me while I was just getting started!
