Hi, I’m Jennifer Ballard, and I’ve had a passion for horses and barrel racing for as long as I can remember.

I see you. You’ve spent years supporting your family, raising kids, and putting everyone else first. But now? It’s your turn. You’ve always dreamed of running barrels, but maybe you’ve told yourself it’s too late to start, you’re not sure where to begin, or—let’s be honest—you’re a little scared.

I’ve worked with so many women just like you. Women who felt nervous, unsure, and worried about getting hurt or embarrassing themselves. Women who weren’t sure if they had what it takes. And I know, without a doubt, you do.

I’ve spent the last 20 years turning barrel racing dreams into reality, especially for middle aged women who are ready to finally do something for themselves. I’ve ridden thousands of horses, trained and competed across the West, and won plenty of buckles—but my biggest passion is helping women just like you step into the arena with confidence. I’ve coached hundreds of students, taking them from never racing, to their very first ride and all the way to winning checks, saddles, and buckles.

And here’s the most important thing I’ve learned… 👉 You don’t have to be fearless, you don’t need a fancy horse, and you don’t have to figure this out alone.

I know it can feel overwhelming. You’re anxious about getting started. You’re afraid of failing, looking silly, or not being good enough. But what if I told you that fear is exactly why you should start? Because on the other side of that fear is confidence, joy, and the thrill of finally doing something just for you.

That’s exactly why I created Barrel Racing Basics: Foundation to Finish — a step-by-step program designed to take you from feeling anxious and unsure to confidently running your first race

in just 30 days.

But I know—right now, you’re not thinking about me or my experience. You’re wondering,

can this really work for ME?

The answer is YES. I’ve helped countless women—women who had never raced before, who were scared to even lope a circle, who weren’t sure if they were "too old" to start—become confident, competitive riders.

If you’ve ever thought, I wish I could do that, I’m here to tell you—you CAN. And I’d love to show you how.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skill level is this program for?

This program is designed for beginner barrel racers who are middle aged women, don't know where to start, and are looking for a structured plan to prepare for their first competition. Riders who feel they just don't know where to start and are too nervous and scared to get out there. If you want a structured course that will ensure you are ready to get in that arena, this is for you.

How long do I have access to the program & when does it start?

You’ll have lifetime access to the program, so you can go at your own pace and revisit the material anytime. The course starts as soon as you enroll! Once you sign up, you never loose access. And we will be adding more videos and resources every single month!

Can't I learn all of this on Youtube?

While YouTube has plenty of free content, it doesn’t provide a structured, step-by-step system designed to take you from beginner to race-ready in 30 days. You also can't really be sure the person on the video knows what they are doing and if they are competent. This program eliminates the guesswork, provides expert guidance, and helps you avoid costly mistakes.

Do I need to have a barrel horse before starting?

While you don't need a competitive barrel horse to begin, you need a horse or at least access to a horse that you are able to take through this program.

What kind of equipment do I need?

You’ll need a properly fitted saddle, bridle, and bit suitable for barrel racing. We’ll also cover recommended tack, safety gear, and how to set up your practice space.

I’m out of shape—can I still do this?

Absolutely! Many riders in this program are getting back into riding after time off. We include fitness tips and exercises tailored to help you build strength, balance, and endurance in the saddle.

What if I don't have access to an arena?

You can still train without a formal arena! We’ll teach you how to set up a practice pattern in a pasture or open space and how to make the most of different environments.

How will this program help me feel confident at my first race?

This course is more than just drills—it’s about building confidence. We cover everything from pre-race preparation and mental strategies to what to expect on race day so you feel ready and prepared. And you'll have access to our community to support you, celebrate your wins and answer questions you have.

Is there a guarantee?

Absolutely! Barrel Racing Basics - Foundation to Finish has a 7-Day Satisfaction Guarantee. If you are not completely SATISFIED and EXCITED by the Program, then contact us within 7 Days for a full refund, no questions asked!
