My mission is to build a strong, trusting relationship with the horse by developing essential physical and mental riding skills. I achieve this through clear, structured training methods that integrate skilled horse training with a deep understanding of horsemanship principles.

At RK Performance Horsemanship, led by equine educator Russ Krachun, we believe great performance begins with trust, understanding, and a solid foundation. Our mission is to develop willing, confident partnerships that last a lifetime.
Through True Grit Academy (TGA), we provide structured online and in-person equine education rooted in commonsense horsemanship and clear, step-by-step methodology. From first foundational lessons to refined performance work, we guide horse and rider forward with clarity, patience, and purpose.
Whether your goals lead you to the show pen, ranch riding, reining, versatility events, western dressage, or simply a reliable trail partner, our programs are designed to help you grow together — building confidence every step of the way.
At our equine educational training facility, we offer Foundation and Performance Horse Training focused on thoughtful progression and individualized development.
We also present select registered Quarter Horses and Paint Horses for sale, chosen for their strong pedigrees and ties to respected reining, ranch, and cutting programs.
