Meet Method Ambassador Alaina Pascarelli

Method Ambassador Alaina Pascarelli knows firsthand the frustrations horse owners can face when they run out of answers. She has been living proof of Clinton’s often repeated tip, “Frustration begins where knowledge ends.” The dedicated horsewoman grew up in southwest Florida, riding English and western.

“When I bought my first horse, I realized he had a big lack of foundation and I couldn’t figure out how to progress with him,” Alaina says. “The horses I’d ridden before knew their jobs or were easy enough to handle.”

She asked the instructors she was working with for assistance, but their advice didn’t help or left Alaina even more confused. Meanwhile, her lack of knowledge was increasing her frustration with the situation. Finally, she stumbled upon the Method. “And just like that, everything started falling into place,” she says. “Clinton’s explanations and how he broke everything down into steps made sense, and I got results quickly.”

In short order, Alaina became dedicated to the Method and began working with more horses. “No matter what horse or pony I took on, the Method worked every time,” she says.

During high school, Alaina became a certified veterinarian assistant and continued to train horses after graduation. She attended the Perry, Georgia Walkabout Tour, and when she learned that Clinton would be teaching a Fundamentals Clinic in Ocala, Florida, she decided to participate. “It was a great experience and it helped me fine-tune the Method even more,” she says.

Receiving Clinton’s instruction at the clinic led Alaina to enroll in the Academy. “I’ve always wanted to be the best horsewoman I can be, and I knew that if I wanted to achieve that goal, I needed to learn directly from Clinton,” she says. “I love not only working with horses but helping people learn how to work with their horses. I know what it’s like to be frustrated, and now I have the opportunity to help other people learn how to enjoy their horses, too.”

Alaina is based in Stephenville, Texas, where she trains horses for the public and teaches private lessons and clinics that focus on the Fundamentals level of the Method. Learn all about Alaina on her website and contact her at 239-634-2129 or [email protected].
