Who's behind Matter's ?
A little about Sophie....
I'm Sophie Couture Coach\Owner at Matter's equine.I started to coach 11 years ago in Quebec eventually decided to move and start up my program in Alberta. I learned from the best horse trainers in the world. I spent winters in Texas, Oklahoma, trained my first horse in 2016 for the BFA world championship in Oklahoma. I also worked for multiple world champions and Olympic riders. I've learned from all of them to become a better rider and coach. I still train and keep my knowledge up to date with the most recent techniques in training. I do it so I can share and provide the best up to date teaching possible. My best reward as a coach is to see my students progress in the sport and achieve their goals. Not only I'm a coach but I'm also a competitor in Barrel racing and Skijoring.
Here's some of my most recent accomplishments :
