David Macias

As a lifelong horseman, David learned the art of communication with horses from his Grandfather. His many years of experience have helped him to be very tuned in to what horses are thinking and feeling. David is also very people-oriented. David’s passion for helping people motivated him to get his BS in Psychology from UNLV in 2015, and begin working in the counseling field. He obtained his CADC (Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor) and specializes in helping people find freedom from their addictions.

He was trained in the Eagala method in 2014, and has been helping to facilitate coaching and riding lessons at Hold Your Horses since 2018. David’s passion for treating all animals, especially horses, and people with sensitivity and compassion, makes him a very patient and understanding teacher.
