Our mission is to improve the life of horses and people around the world through liberty.
About Us
YELO is the world's first recognized liberty organization that focuses on youth and youth at heart. We provide a network of members, trainers, and organizations around the world that bring liberty horsemanship and youth together.
Connecting a worldwide community through virtual and in person education, fun competitions, and more.
What is Liberty?
Liberty is connecting and communicating with the horse's natural spirit, without limiting the horse's movement with ropes and other tools. Thus creating an environment that encourages the freedom of expression and opinions.
What is our Purpose?
We focus so much on getting work done with our horses, that sometimes we forget how it felt when we were kids spending time with our horses without the pressure of expectations and standards, when there was just the connection between you and your horse and the joy that follows.
​
YELO; because it's meant to be a ray of sunshine that brings joy and positivity to you and your horse.
Who's it for?
When we first started planning YELO, it was designed for members to age out at 18. But the more people we met and work with, the more we realized something very important. When we’re working with our horses at liberty, we all become Youth at Heart. Liberty brings out the kid in all of us. Experiencing the magic of our horses following us around, working with us purely because of our connection is something everyone should be able to be apart of, whether you’re 8 or 80.
​
We want to be the Disney world of horsemanship. Designed for kids, but let's be honest, lots of adults love going too. We’re all involved with horses because we love the animals and we want to spend time with them, so that’s what’s at the center of our organization.
Why Competitions?
We want to create an environment, both virtually and in person, that is welcoming and supportive to members of all levels. We want to create fun competitions where everyone wins, it's truly about setting goals to improve your connection and horsemanship. A place where horses of all breeds, ages, and types can succeed.
