Horses are an important part of many human lives. They provide recreation, competition, companionship, and more to their owners, handlers, and riders. Working with a horse, whether on the ground or in the saddle, can bring joy, inspiration, and personal growth. Michael and Tiffany Richardson of Broken R. Ranch and Connection Equestrian Center have made it their mission to help riders and their horses follow the dream and achieve their personal and competitive goals through focused, compassionate, and balanced training.

At their home base in Hico, Texas, Michael and Tiffany provide clinics, training of horse and rider; and quality prospects for sale. The Ranch is also home for the Connection Equestrian Center and Double S Sporthorses, a breeding program dedicated to creating sport horses with ability, athleticism, and intelligence. Double S Sporthorses is owned and operated by Tiffany's parents, John and Sondra Airola.

Michael travels across the country providing clinics, demonstrations, and presentations to horsemen and horsewomen. Tiffany accompanies Michael and assists in the events, helping participants and attendees. The pair provide educational opportunities at stables, horse farms, horse expos, equine industry trade shows, and other venues where horses and humans can come together to learn.

In addition, Michael gives motivational speaking and horsemanship presentations to corporations, churches, businesses and more. The inspirational story of how the horse has influenced, taught, and focused Michael's life is one almost everyone can relate to on a personal level. His unique style of presentation — which includes a horse whenever possible — is both entertaining and educational.

In the equine industry, you will find no team more dedicated to providing honest and intelligent assistance to riders and horses than Michael and Tiffany.
