Jamilyn Anthony
- PATH Intl. Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor (2010)
- CHA Certified – English & Western (2021)
Jamilyn is our passionate Founder and Instructor who has dedicated her life to sharing the horse's healing power. As a lifelong equestrian, she bought her first horse as a teenager and has participated in a variety of activities, from drill team to gymkhanas.
Her journey into therapeutic riding began while volunteering at a center, where she experienced firsthand how horses can inspire growth and healing. In 2010, she earned her PATH Intl. certification as a Therapeutic Riding Instructor, and later in 2021 became certified by CHA in both English and Western riding.
Jamilyn combines her deep love for horses with exceptional teaching skills, empowering students both in and out of the arena.

- Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor (in progress)
Liam's story takes a different path. He grew up in the middle of New York City — skyscrapers, subways, the works — and then moved to Colorado. That's when horses stepped into the picture, and he never looked back.
He began volunteering at the Temple Grandin Equine Center in 2024 and joined Connections Through Horses in 2025 as a Riding Instructor Assistant. Right now, he's working toward becoming a Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor, and he loves both teaching and learning.
He brings fresh energy into the barn — enthusiastic, curious, and always looking for new ways to connect with riders. His perspective and dedication make him a valued part of our team.
