Our mission is to improve the life of horses and people around the world through liberty.

About Us

Founded in 2021, Gamilah Unbridled is a non-profit that helps provide liberty horsemanship education to underprivileged youth and rescue horses.

Liberty is connecting and communicating with the horse's natural spirit, without limiting the horse's movement with ropes and other tools. Thus creating an environment that encourages the freedom of expression and opinions.

Patrick Sullivan

At 26 years old, Patrick took his first horsemanship lesson in March 2015. He did not grow up around horses, nor was he passionate about them until much later in life.

Patrick grew up in Dallas, TX but was not involved with horses, instead had a passion for soccer. He played high school, collegiate, and professional soccer. Patrick coached collegiate soccer for 4 years starting in 2011, and was the head soccer coach for a high school. In 2015, Patrick graduated with his MBA in International Management from the University of Houston- Victoria.

Once Patrick found horses in 2015, he was hooked. He was constantly learning and wanting to develop his skills. Over the past 8 years, he has accomplished as much as he could have ever imagined in such a short period of time. He has developed a passion for liberty horsemanship and the power it has to transform the horse human connection.

During the 8 years, Patrick has done the following:

Studied and interned with Ryan Rose, professional Brooklyn, WI.
Worked with Dan James, of Double Dan Horsemanship from 2019 to 2021. Since then has competed in the Mustang Makeover (TX), finishing Top 20 and 2nd in the newcomers.

Avery Sullivan

She discovered liberty horsemanship in 2019 and that ignited a passion that she has been following ever since. There is something indescribable about connecting and communicating with a horse completely at liberty. That passion has led her to join both Gamilah Unbridled and the Youth Equine Liberty Organization, in hopes to spread that feeling to many more horses and people around the world.
