Balanced Sport Horses is owned and operated by me, Elisabeth Meinert.
I have been passionate about horses my whole life and started learning to ride at age 8, in Germany, where I was born.
At the age of 15 my family and myself moved to Canada, where I quickly fulfilled my dream of buying and owning my own horse.
After graduating high school in 2007, I attended the British Columbia College of Equine Sports Therapy and earned my Equine Sports Therapy certification in 2009.
I was able to spend time riding with and learning from a few great trainers, such as Todd Bergen, Marion Weisskopf, and Clay Webster to further my knowledge in Natural Horsemanship and Reining throughout my equine career.
Having worked professionally in the Equine Industry as a Ranch and Breeding Manager for over 15 years, showing reining horses as a Non-Pro for 15 years, and my extensive background in horse husbandry, Equine Sports Therapy, and passion for the equine well-being, eventually lead me to fulfill my dream of opening the doors of Balanced Sport Horses in May 2021.
When I am not in the barn looking after horses, I enjoy spending time with my dogs, training my reining horses, and exploring new things around Forth Worth.
