"I'm not a horse trainer, I'm a horseman.
What’s the difference?
A horse trainer trains horses;
a horseman trains himself."

– Chris Cox

Each weekend tour stop provides a remarkable learning opportunity in a relaxed, entertaining setting. Enjoy demonstrations that reveal proven methods for interacting with the horse. Learn techniques that will build your confidence and increase your horse handling skills. From the foundation of ground work to the refinement of advanced horsemanship skills for building a rider’s confidence, Chris will show you his proven methods.

Ride the JourneySM: Life is a journey, and my journey is with horses. Come Ride the JourneySM is my way of inviting you to join my life, learn the lessons I've learned and continue to learn from the horse, and make the horse, to some extent, your life and journey as well. The journey lasts until the day I die, because the way I see it, there will always be something for me to learn from a horse or another horseman. Don't forget: the difference between good and great is passion. And I hope you'll share my passion for the horse.



Halter & Lead
$59.99
<!--a-->Halter & Lead

The foundation of Chris' program is this specially designed halter with lead rope. This halter was created by Chris out of rope that is stiff enough to hold its shape and is unmatched in durability. The 13 foot lead rope is manufactured especially for Chris and was created for its specific weight and feel. This halter and lead rope are unique in not only these qualities but also in the attention to detail that comes with handmade quality products. You will notice that Chris' lead rope does not have any snaps or hardware to seize up or get in the way of your effective communication with your horse.




Hi. My name is Hannah. I admire my mom and dad the most, but another person outside my family really admire is a horseman named Chris Cox. I have had the honor of meeting Chris on a few occasions and he always takes an interest in what people have to say. He is always open to help and teach others about horses, yet never acts like he is the expert. He is a down-to-earth gentleman who has a true respect for all.

Hannah Sherrill, age 11
