If you've ever been to the Lazy K Arena south of Grand Island -- You have probably seen Kelsey Helgoth in action!  She is the tall blonde lady that keeps the whole place hopping!  Kelsey proudly owns a gorgeous, well-bred, fancy broke AQHA stallion she calls BOSS.  She is also the very loving mama to her daughter, Braeley -- Who is always on Kelsey's hip, in the saddle in front of Kelsey, or safely contained within her giant playpen positioned right beside Kelsey, while she coaches.  Kelsey is married to Broderick Helgoth and he is her absolute best friend and the anchor that keeps the Lazy K facility in good working order year-round!  Kelsey was raised right there at the Lazy K -- Mostly on a horse!  She grew up showing horses across the country in multiple organizations and a wide variety of events. Kelsey also rode and competed within the Hall County 4H program. She also did very well training and showing her own dogs within the 4-H program and trained dogs and coached their owners in obedience, to help support herself during her high school and college years. She was a graduate of Northwest High School in 2010, and went on to get her bachelor's degree in Psychology at the University of Nebraska at Kearney.  Kelsey will tell you, she uses that degree every single day while working with all of the lesson kids, women who ride, and the endless families who love horses and have chosen to board, ride and improve their skills with horses at the Lazy K Arena!

If nerdy horse girl was a stereotype, that would be Kaitlin. With a Bachelors in English from Missouri Valley College where she college rodeoed and a Masters in American Literature from SIUE that she earned while attending pro and amateur rodeos, Kaitlin is no stranger to the hours in the saddle it take to make a confident, trained performance horse. She has even coached a few younger barrel racers as well. After 10 years of teaching English to college and high school students, she has left the classroom, but brought her ability to balance projects and compassion for people to Krazy K. 

Kaitlin lives in Missouri with her husband who trains heel horses. She runs the backside of the website, the lesson and event scheduling, and Facebook of of Krazy K. Kaitlin can help you decide which lesson, class, event, or clinic is right for you or your family. Just ask!
