Who is ashley boswell?

Ashley Boswell’s passion for connecting with animals began at Sea World in a “behind the scenes” tour when she was 8 years old. Now, with over 25 years of experience and education in psychology, Christian studies, and animal behavior, she defines herself as a horse trainer and Gospel proclaimer. Liberty training, where a horse is free to move with the human without ropes and tack, is her favorite way to interact with horses. Ashley has trained several wild horses in the past two decades and competed in renowned events including the Extreme Mustang Makeover and Mustang Challenge. Her last Mustang Challenge competition resulted in a grand championship where she and her horse, Shadow, who was only 120 days from the wild, performed their freestyle routine completely at liberty. Ashley attributes her success and liberty education to her many mentors including Sylvia Zerbini of the award-winning production Cavalia; Emma Massingale, a free rider and liberty team specialist; Jenifer Zeligs, world-renowned animal behaviorist and best-selling author of Animal Training 101, and many other amazing horse men and women.
In 2004, Ashley combined her background in theology, her counseling education, and her passion for natural horsemanship to start Shepherd Youth Ranch. Today, Shepherd Youth Ranch exists to provide hope and restoration to the hurting through a unique relationship with a horse. They have served thousands of people throughout their 22 years and continue to make a generational impact for God's Kingdom!
As a warrior in His Kingdom's Cavalry, Ashley’s desire is to bring inspiration, hope and joy to her students through liberty with horses.
