ERIN MALIA
Erin Malia began riding as a young teen and has owned horses since 1998. She began her career in the equine industry after graduating from the University of Georgia, serving as stable manager and lesson instructor at a hunter-jumper training facility. Her desire to maximize her knowledge and skills led to the valuable experience of working for an equine veterinary practice for several years, while also becoming certified as a PATH (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship, International) certified riding instructor. Erin’s career in therapeutic riding includes serving organizations in various capacities: instructor, mentor, volunteer coordinator, horse trainer, program director, and board member. The opportunity to blend her passion for horses with helping others also heightened Erin’s awareness of the many aspects of safety around horses. This awareness, along with her desire to increase attention on the relationship between horse and human, led Erin to natural horsemanship. She has seen the tremendous impact of the natural horsemanship approach on her own horses as well as on her students and their horse experiences. Natural horsemanship prioritizes an understanding of horse behavior and nature, which translates to better communication, increased motivation, optimized safety and maximum success for both horse and rider. Erin takes great joy in building the confidence and skills of her students and their horses so that they can enjoy each other for many years.
