Reined Cow Horse Training, Sales & Coaching for All Levels

We breed, train, sale fit, sell and show Reined Cow Horses and coach Non Pros. It is very important to us to meet our customers goals, as well as the goals we have set for ourselves. Our mission is to help both horse and rider meet their full potential. 


Being successful requires hard work, honesty, and consistency. Training horses isn't just our job, it is what we love to do! 

“A willing horse is one who knows where the release is and loves their job as much as we do.” - McKoy Christiansen



We are dedicated to providing an excellent learning environment for horses and non-pro riders both adults and youth.

Meet Mckoy Christiansen

NRCHA professional horseman McKoy Christiansen specializes in training and showing reined cow horses and has years of training both horses and riders. McKoy's background and knowledge of horsemanship and training came from growing up on a horse and cattle ranch in Utah. He shows his horses in both AQHA and NRCHA shows. Our training program emphasizes a strong two year old program which progresses them into their aged event years. 


“At Christiansen Performance Horses we work hard to achieve peak performance from horse and rider."

"I don’t send a lot of horses to outside trainers. We sent a mare to Christiansen Performance Horses last spring and have been pleased with the results. McKoy puts a nice quiet handle on them and sets them up for a successful career in any discipline. McKoy is a true horseman through and through."
