Doug and Amy Jordan have navigated the ever-evolving equine industry for nearly four decades. Doug recalls becoming hooked on the sport of cutting at the age of eleven and had successfully trained his first competitive cutter by the time he was just thirteen years old. His personal accomplishments boast titles at numerous major NCHA events, and training the likes of several phenominal show horses such as Lenas Telesis and Smart Little Tee just to name a few. Doug was inducted  into the National Cutting Horse Associations Hall of Fame in 2000. After being only the second rider in NCHA history (following Shorty Freeman and Doc Olena in 1970) to win every go-round during the NCHA Futurity, Doug and Cols Lil Pepper took home the Reserve Champion title. This was only Doug's third trip to the Futurity but it set the stage for many more finals and championships. Amy has been there every step of the way, from loping down colts, to getting horses show-pen ready and lets not forget all of the long hard hours dedicated to the horse training family and raising their son, Levi.

They have track record that goes far beyond the sandy arena of the cutting pen and the couple's concentration has now transitioned from competitively training cutting horses, to sharing and promoting a truer connection between horse and rider. Doug’s horsemanship is a constant cycle of progression and refinement. As a student, you will find his style reflects that of prominent influences such as Ray Hunt and Tom Dorrance, and is often collaborated with that of other true protégé of the legends. With techniques that stress the importance of giving the horse a choice, Doug focuses on key components that will put purpose to your horsemanship as he covers such principles as proper timing and positioning, developing feel, building confidence and of course, understanding how a horse’s mind operates.
