About Liberty Meadows Training Center

Ryan Strand started Liberty Meadows in 2000, and has been going strong ever since. From a family of horsemen, he has developed a philosophy that works not only with the horses he trains, but with his clients as well. "I want to help people achieve their goals, and what I have found is that most people get into horses and showing because they want to have fun and become better riders." Having been a student of many talented trainers, Ryan brings knowledge and skill not only to his training program, but also to the area of sales and marketing.

An accomplished youth competitor, Elise Worman has coached riders to local, regional and national titles, relying on her own experiences to help them develop a competitive edge in the show ring. Besides providing opportunities for non-horse owners to learn about Arabian horses, Elise is also able to prepare clients for the show ring. "With her skill in equitation we will have an extra edge when getting ready for the big shows," says Ryan. "It is one thing to have the horse completely ready, and another to have the rider completely ready." "I enjoy working with riders of all skill levels, helping them learn more and perfect their show ring skills," Elise says.
