WILD HORSE

PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM

EMPOWERING YOU TO FIND A PATH FORWARD WITH YOUR MUSTANG

THROUGH BUILDING TRUST AND CLEAR COMMUNICATION

The Wild Horse Partnership Program is a 3 month immersive virtual coaching and mentorship program designed for anyone working with a Mustang — from untouched to under saddle —focused on relationship- based horsemanship, practical skills, and emotional empowerment for the human.


It’s about becoming the kind of human a wild horse chooses to trust.

We believe the most powerful transformations begin with a deep understanding, trust and connection. Through a customized approach, you’ll develop the skills, mindset, and confidence required to guide your formerly wild horse to the next chapter — no matter where you are at in your journey — in a way that honors who they are and who you’re becoming.

“I can't say enough good things about my experience working with my Great Escape Mustang’s Wild Horse Partnership Program over the 3 months. As a first time mustang adopter, I realized I needed some support with my new wild horse. Jana of Chasing a Dream Equine was such a huge catalyst to our progress.

When we started, I couldn't put a halter on my mustang mare, but now we're confidently walking around the property, walking and trotting consistently in the round pen, handling her feet with ease, and even behaving well for the veterinarian!

Jana's modern training philosophy was exactly what we needed. Her methods were consistent, safe, and most importantly, my horse easily understood them. She not only guided us through exercises but also explained how each one contributed to our larger goals, which really helped me stay focused and confident. I especially appreciated how Jana always put my horse's needs first, ensuring that every step of the process was done with her well-being in mind.

I'm incredibly grateful for the support from both Great Escape Mustangs and Jana and highly recommend this program to anyone looking to build a strong, respectful bond with their mustang."

  • Any experience level! We are here to support you on your individual path with your Mustang. Whether you are a beginner or moving into advanced training under saddle with your Mustang - whatever your goals are we will support you getting there!

  • Yes! Most folks rotate back and forth between their horses as situations arise. You are more than welcome to move through the program with more than 1 horse, but we allow 1 horse per week as the focus in the training session.

    OR If you want to send in training sessions for 2+ horses per week at the same time that is an additional fee.

  • You must have somewhere safe to work your horse for gentling. This can be a square pen, but we prefer a round pen.

  • We believe in safety before everything else! Before we can accept you as an under saddle participant we require a riding video to see your skill level as a rider.

    Must have round pen access, then eventually arena access depending on how far along in the process you are.
