TESTIMONIALS

"I am writing this to highly recommend Rodeo Gym, a roping business. As a participant in roping, I can confidently say that Rodeo Gym provides an exceptional space for both beginners and seasoned ropers alike. Ryan has helped me so much as a roper. I’ve taken lessons, and his clinic, and could confidently recommend him to anyone."

"Rodeo Gym with Ryan Franks has been very beneficial to our family. He has been working with our girls for some time now and we have seen drastic improvements in their roping. Even though they are only 13 and 10 years old, Ryan pushes them to be their best. He has been able to level down his knowledge in a very understanding way for them to learn quickly and for it to be fun. He has the girls compete with each other and make bets for chores! We always leave the arena feeling more improved and more connected as a family when Ryan is with us. He is a positive role model and someone safe for our girls to be influenced by. The Joy that comes from within him is so refreshing to be around. We highly recommend Rodeo Gym."

"As a parent, it is often difficult to also be a coach. Ryan has spent many, many hours with my two sons and has helped them to be better not only in their horsemanship and roping, but also more physically fit and mentally strong. I would strongly recommend Ryan Franks and Rodeo Gym if you want to be better and more competitive."

"I got to work with Ryan for four days while in Texas. We did morning and afternoon sessions. He was very thorough in his teaching as I am fairly new at this sport. He is incredibly patient and knowledgeable. He took me through each part of roping, and fix the issues, I was having with great explanations and drills. I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with him. I would highly recommend him for anyone at any level."

"When I think of a Mentor/ coach, I think of someone who has the knowledge about the subject, a good listener, and someone who can push us to be better. This is Rodeo Gym! About 6 months ago we met coach Ryan, for a lesson to get us going in the right direction for calf roping and breakaway. I knew immediately that Jase and Ryan shared a bond. Which is hard to find in a good coach. Ryan, teaches in a manner that is comprehendible for Jase, who is dyslexic, to grasp and apply. I can’t tell you how knowledgeable he is from beginners to advanced, and everyone in between there is a spot for you! I can’t say enough about how much of an impact Rodeo Gym has had on Jase becoming a better roper, horseman, and little human!"

"Blaine and McKenzie Hargrove both go to Ryan Franks for lessons. Blaine has been taking lessons from Ryan for about 3 years now. Ryan has made a huge impact on Blaine's roping. He helps keep us tuned up and roping our best. Plus he always finds ways to grow Blaine's knowledge and ability with each lesson. McKenzie is just starting her roping career and Ryan has been a big assest in her learning correctly and keeping her confidence up. Ryan is great at breaking the runs down and pointing out what we need to be working on to better their runs. Plus he always finds ways to keep it fun. Ryan is great with both horses and people. This is a wonderful virtue to have. We owe alot of our kid's success to Ryan."
