Testimonials

I came to study the Horsemanship 101 course with Chris, and I leanred so much in a short space of time, from how to approach horses, how they view he worlds, their social structure and more. I can’t recommend him highly enough, as in a very short amount of time i learned how to be around horses, and learned a lot from his kins and gentle manner with them. Thank you Chris!
