Performance Is Our Business
From Jake Lundahl — Newbury, OH
✍🏼 Dear Ambitious Horse Owner,
Did you ever see the movie Ford v. Ferrari?
It’s the story of two rival automakers at war for dominance at Le Mans, the world’s most prestigious endurance race. On one side was Ford Motor Company — big, corporate, and uninspired, cranking out mass-produced boxes with wheels. On the other side was Ferrari — the pinnacle of prestige and perfection; every car handcrafted by artisans, dripping with elegance and unattainable status.
But the real heroes of the story weren’t Ford or Ferrari. They were the team at Shelby American — a performance shop that could take any car, no matter its origin or limitations, and transform it into something extraordinary.
Shelby wasn’t about mass production or elitism. They were about results. They could drop a more powerful American engine into your sporty European import. They could take a stock street machine and turn it into a fire-breathing hot rod. They could even design a race car from scratch that would leave the big names in the dust. Whatever the client's goals, Shelby had the know-how, the grit, and the artistry to make it happen.
Lundahl Performance is the "Shelby" of the Horse World
We give you the craftsman's approach without the elitism.
Our focus is results. Whether your horse needs fine-tuning, a complete overhaul, or a full build from the ground up, we have the expertise and passion to make it happen.
We do what others can’t — or won’t. Have a reiner or cowhorse that needs a tune-up or a major overhaul? We can help. Want to take a ranch horse and add performance-level buttons while keeping their versatility intact? We’ve got you covered. Have a young prospect that needs the right preparation for success at the highest levels? That’s where we shine.
We care about the little things too — the details that others ignore but that make a horse truly exceptional. How well your horse ties, loads, stands to be saddled, and accepts new situations without stress are just as important to us as their maneuvers in the show pen. We don’t cut corners. We don’t sweep problems under the rug. We build complete horses — and give owners the confidence and capability to go with them.
Discovering Hidden Talent is Our Superpower
Some of the best horses we’ve ever trained came to us as "problem cases." They were undervalued, unappreciated, or given up on by other trainers who didn’t see their potential or didn’t want to put in the extra effort.
These are the horses we love working with most.
Our program is good enough that we don't need to rely purely on a horse's genetics. Our skill, our understanding of the horse's mind, and our commitment to excellence make up the difference. With us, horses that would otherwise "slip through the cracks" get a genuine opportunity to grow, learn, and shine.
Two Year Olds
For young prospects, we offer a structured and comprehensive program designed to lay the foundation for elite performance. Every step is methodical and intentional, cultivating balance and consistency without overwhelm. We protect your horse's mental and physical wellbeing while setting them on the path to long-term success.
The transparency of our process ensures that you, as the owner, are fully informed at every stage. You’ll always know what your colt is learning, why, and how it fits into the bigger picture. Through detailed updates, written documentation, and video or hands-on demonstrations, we make sure you understand the "why" behind everything your horse is learning.
Our goal is to give your horse the best possible start while providing you with confidence and clarity about their progress. From the first rides to the building blocks of advanced maneuvers, everything is designed to build a horse that is not only capable but confident, willing, and ready to perform.
Three Year Olds and Up
For older horses, our program is tailored to address specific challenges and elevate their performance. Whether your horse needs a tune-up to refine their skills or an overhaul to correct bigger problems, we take a results-oriented approach that improves not just the horse, but also your partnership.
We’re not just trainers; we’re teachers, meaning that the skills and exercises we introduce can be replicated by you. This means that when your horse leaves our program, you’ll have the tools and confidence to continue their success.
We're not in the bandaid business— we're in the transformation business. By combining a craftsman’s eye for detail with a deep passion for helping horses and owners succeed, we produce results that last. We bring out the best in each horse, by revealing their potential in ways others never thought possible.
