Joy Kussman has lived almost her entire life around horses.  She started her equestrian dream as the proud teen owner of Charmer, her faithful pony.  With many shows under her belt, trail adventures,  and eventual racetrack experience, Joy continued to educate herself in the art of training and raising horses.  She comes from the school of hard knocks, so to speak, where experience lays the foundation of solid equestrian aptitude.  She is well-schooled in both English and Western riding disciplines, show circuits, green broke projects, and safety issues.
