Mentally tough describes Barbra Schulte. Having successfully trained and shown cutting horses professionally, Barbra made a difficult decision to alter her career path within the horse industry. She realized that her unique personal passion with horses involved two parts - to train and show cutting horses and a deep desire to understand and teach riders to reach peak performance levels under pressure.
