Stalon Robinson
Stalon owns and operates RD Ranch Versatility Horses with his wife Teresa. Starting his career in the equine industry at a young age, he grew up learning the ropes of being a cowboy from his father, whom he looks up to a great deal. Together they rode and trained horses. Stalon learned a great deal from his childhood and eventually opened his own business in Nine Mile Falls, Wa. He focuses on being patient and confident with your equine friends. Stating “We are a team and I want my horses to think through problems instead of reacting to them. A lot of times in training, less is more.”
These words obviously resonate with his clients as one states, “Stalon loves sharing his extensive knowledge with as many people as he possibly can.” It has even been said that Stalon takes extra time in clinics, lessons, and even farrier work to go the extra mile in order to create a more successful horse and rider combo.
It is an honor to choose you Stalon! Congratulations from Bountiful Roots Wellness and PNW Equine Network.

Tyanne Bashore
Tyanne has been indulging herself in equine sports since she was a young girl. Traveling to Hunter Jumper shows with her trusty steed Beamer and Frankie, they always knew how to brighten the days of those around them. Tyanne had many horses too love through her lifetime so far. She built relationships based on trust and respect with her equine partners, which in turn offered success in her showing career. Her current mount, Gretchen, is a mare trained in Dressage and Jumping; she LOVES her jump days. They have been building their relationship for 7 years now. You can see the love they have for one another through their playful nature. Great job, Tyanne! We are proud of the way you care for Gretchen with open and honest communication.

Rosie Simikel
With the horse of a lifetime, Ferdi, Rosie indulges in dressage, show jumping, and cross country; and she does it in such style! Rosie is a beautiful rider, balanced with grace and understanding for her partner in the game. We have watched Rosie put in the time to better herself and her best friend through positive practices, bodywork, and continuous training. We have watched Rosie start a business from a personal passion which is leading her down a road to help horses in need.
Rosie owns and operates SURGE Equine where she specializes in PEMF Therapy. As we see a rise in new machines we are reminded that, “The machine is only as good as the practitioner behind it.” This statement runs true as we watch Rosie display as an example. She pays attention and cares for her clients. She is active in growing her knowledge and understanding. When using this specific therapy, she is the practitioner we call on 🤍
We love to celebrate a love of knowledge and growth, great job Rosie! We are proud to have you in the industry.

Abigal Popa
Abi is a bright young rider with an eye and feel that many of us wish we had. She has the ability to jump from one horse to another with poise and grace. Her calm demeanor comforts her equine partners as they accomplish their goals together. Abi has been competing in 3 day Eventing for the past few years and quickly moved her way up the ribbons with her hard work. Her dedication drives her practice as you can catch her at the barn at least 6 days a week! If you get a chance to watch this young rider compete, take it! We here at Bountiful Roots are so proud of you, Abi! Keep up the great work!
