About
ARC Performance Horses LLC.
Our Purpose
Working to build a partnership between you and your horse.
ARC Performance Horses LLC. officially began in 2021 and has been training incredible horses ever since. What sets us apart from the rest is our focus on a well-rounded and desensitized horse. Softness and willingness are at the very top of our priority list. Horses trained by ARC Performance Horses not only excel in the show arena but make amazing trail and hobby horses.
The horses are introduced to a number of unique obstacles in the training process, so that when you saddle up you know your horse will not waiver. No matter how unique or challenging a horse is, you can count on us to find the best training method to help you and your horse become the very best you can be.

Alaina Cuddie
Founder, Owner, and Head Trainer

Ever since she was a little girl, Alaina has had a passion for horses. She began riding when she was only two years old and fell in love with it instantly. Since then, she has learned and grown to become the horse woman she is today. She focuses her training on keeping a horse soft, fluid, and willing. Alaina encourages a partnership with a horse, not a dictatorship.
Alaina received her journeyman level certification from Ken McNabb in 2023 and completed her bachelor’s degree in equine studies in 2024. Besides these qualifications, she has competed in several disciplines across the board and has started several young horses. If you would like more information about Alaina, her training methods, or the services offered at ARC Performance Horses, fill out the form below and we will contact you soon. Happy trails!


The Approch
Traveling Training
At this time, ARC Performance Horses does not own an equine facility. Instead, Alaina travels to your home, barn, or show, or offers haul in services at D Bar D Ranch in Chase, MI. You are able to watch and take part in every session if you'd like, and have the ability to find a schedule that works for you. You are given the comfort of still having your horse at home and the convenience of not needing to travel if you do not wish to. It's the best of both worlds!
