Our Team

The JoyRide Team is the heartbeat of our mission to make the impossible possible. Every staff member brings a unique blend of experience, passion, and purpose to the arena each day, united by a deep belief in the transformative power of horses. More than instructors or support staff, they are mentors, motivators, and compassionate partners- walking alongside each rider on their journey of growth and discovery. Their dedication creates a space where challenges are met with courage, milestones are celebrated with joy, and every individual is empowered to thrive.

Katelyn Edmonds
 

Riding Instructor-in-training 

Growing up in the Spring area, she has had a love for horses for as long as she can remember. She always dreamed of working with and training them but quickly learned that success in this field takes dedication, patience, and hard work. She spent many years on her family’s ranch, where she learned the value of responsibility and perseverance. Horses have been a part of her life for over 13 years, and she has raised cattle her entire life with the help of her grandpa until she was old enough to take over herself. To this day, her family ranch has taught her what it truly takes to be successful and achieve her goals.

Throughout high school, she discovered another passion—working with individuals with special needs. She loved watching people achieve goals they once thought were out of reach, which inspired her to start volunteering at a therapeutic riding facility. It didn’t take long for her to realize she had found her calling.

That path led her to JoyRide Center, where she began working toward becoming a certified therapeutic riding instructor. From the very beginning, she knew she was right where she belonged. JoyRide has given her the opportunity to combine her love for horses and her passion for helping others, and she feels incredibly grateful to be part of such a meaningful and rewarding team and community.
