One of the biggest benefits of this program is getting support and coaching with more than one horse at at time and being able to get your questions and feedback daily. It will increase your skill at being able to adjust and problem solve for individual horses.
Additionally, you get the opportunity to work side by side successful professionals who have many years of experience starting young horses. Students in this program receive our highest level of mentorship and one-on-one support.
Student's are responsible for bringing a minimum of 3 young horses to work with in the program. They need to be between the ages of 2-4 and never been saddled.
