Who is Big Heart Equine?
Big Heart Equine was founded and created by Rebecca Salberg, LAC. Rebecca found her love for horses at the age of 5 when in Montana. The second Rebecca was in the saddle, she was hooked. This passion continued as she started her riding career at Smoke Rise Riding Club. Rebecca began showing regularly as she aged and moved to West Milford Equestrian Center to focus on Hunter/Jumpers. After showing in the Bit O' Straw Classic at HITS in 2009 and placing 9th overall, Rebecca wanted to explore more riding disciplines. In 2011, Rebecca moved to the jumper ring where she learned her love for speed! Her love for ponies developed after having a successful show season. Rebecca rode for Sacred Heart University's NCAA and IHSA Equestrian team for one year. Rebecca moved back home to continue her education at Caldwell University and continued her riding at numerous barns where she worked green horses for lesson programs. Rebecca founded Misty Mountain Acres and began her teaching career in 2018. Rebecca moved back to the Elite Equine Group in 2021 to continue her teaching along side their team at Garrett Mountain Reservation. Rebecca currently is a Licensed Associate Counselor with the state of New Jersey and hopes to continue building a therapeutic program. Rebecca has specialized in trauma-focused care as well as crisis intervention.
