Kathy Moore

Kathy Moore, Owner-Sugarfoot Jog Ranch, is an accomplished Natural Horsemanship Instructor and an E3A Master Trainer in Waller, Texas. (Houston, Texas Area) She travels throughout Texas and the United States offering clinics and private lessons to clients and their horses. Kathy works with the rider and their horse in the moment and then builds on the strengths of the relationship.

She began her career as a horsewoman in 2001 after attending the Parelli International Student School in Ocala, Florida. Over the past 20 years, Kathy has studied with numerous renowned Natural Horsemanship Practitioners including Joe Wolter, Buck Brannaman, Dave Ellis and Chris Irwin. In addition to training horses, Kathy conducts multi-person riding and groundwork clinics and presents natural horsemanship demos. She specializes in colt-starts, restarts and training difficult horses. While working with horses and their owners, Kathy realized that she wasn't training the horse as much as she was helping facilitate change within the owners.  That work became a natural segue into doing Equine Experiential Learning.

Kathy is an E3A Master Trainer traveling all over the Continental United States teaching trainers how to facilitate Corporate Team Building and Leadership workshops and Personal Development and Well-being programs.  As an E3A Advanced Practitioner with a Specialty in Corporate Training, Kathy works with corporations and small businesses offering an innovative approach to team, individual and organizational learning to improve teamwork, communication, leadership skills and overall performance.  She previously was certified with EAGALA as an equine specialist.  She has worked with girls that are victims of human trafficking, young adolescents that have aged out of the Foster Care System and is currently working with children in the Texas Yes Waiver program.  

Kathy graduated from The Art Institute of Pittsburgh with a degree in Interior Design. She has been a co-owner of an automobile dealership where she helped train horses for advertising campaigns and TV spots for the dealership.
