Welcome to Balance Point Training

Highly individualized, feel-based training for trainers and riders that develops the horse and rider as a true partnership—led by Juci Somoygi and grounded in patience, precision, and trust.

Our Philosophy

Where Horse & Rider Find Their Balance Point

True progress happens at the balance point—where strength meets softness, structure meets flow, and the horse is allowed to move as their body was designed to move.

 

At Balance Point Horse Training, we focus on biomechanics, natural flow lines, and clear communication between horse and rider. When the rider finds balance and timing, the horse can soften, carry themselves, and move with confidence and ease.

 

We believe softness cannot be forced—it must be earned through understanding, patience, and feel. Every program is intentionally individualized, honoring the horse’s mind, body, and long-term soundness.

 

We owe this to them.

Our Programs

Professional, full-care boarding paired with individualized training programs designed around your horse’s needs, goals, and stage of development. Every horse receives thoughtful, consistent work that prioritizes soundness, softness, and long-term progress.

Lessons

Private and semi-private lessons focused on balance, timing, and feel. Riders develop clarity and confidence through intentional instruction that strengthens communication and partnership with their horse.

Rehabilitation and Intensive Training

Purposeful rehabilitation, restarting, and intensive training programs for horses needing time, clarity, and thoughtful development. Each program is customized to support physical recovery, mental confidence, and a smooth return to balanced work.

Clinics

Immersive educational clinics hosted at our Reno facility and on location. Designed for riders seeking deeper understanding of biomechanics, balance, and feel-based riding, with a strong emphasis on practical application.

Meet Juci

“Training should make the horse stronger—physically and mentally—and give the rider clarity, confidence, and feel.”

Juci is known for her uncompromising dedication to both horse and rider. Her approach blends intensity with empathy—pushing boundaries while honoring the individual needs of each partnership.

 

She believes great training is not about control, but communication. Not about speed, but sustainability. Horses in her program are developed with patience, clarity, and respect—never rushed, never overlooked. Juci wants to empower her riders, make them confident in their discovery and progress. 

 

Clients trust Juci for her ability to see what others miss, to listen before asking, and to guide each horse-and-rider pair toward their highest potential with honesty and care. In order to become better horsemen, we need to understand ourselves and how we fit into the horse's realm.
