At East Coast Horseshoeing School, we will pass our 27 years’ experience on to our students. The instructor, Joey White, is a second-generation farrier. His dad, Bobby White, completed school at Oklahoma in 1966. After moving to Delaware Bobby became very successful shoeing standardbred race horses. Joey was around the business his entire life.
In 1997 he decided he wanted to follow in his dad’s footsteps and attended school under Danny Ward at Eastern School of Farriery. He has shod Olympian dressage horses, rodeo horses, and record-breaking race horses.
