Jeanie
Shepherd
has been among horses all of her life,. She has trained and taught as a
professional since 1989, has raised Quarter Horses, and trained horses since
1981, trained and raced barrel horses since 1992, and became interested in
“Natural Horsemanship” in 1998.The Parelli Method became the focus of her
career, and continues to be her “school of choice.” What she has learned by
being a Parelli student is reflected in her style of teaching. Jeanie has an
in depth understanding of holistic healing and complementary horse care, and
is very generous with sharing her knowledge.

Jill Maufort
has been teaching horses and riders for many years, and is well-renowned for
her kindness and patience with equine and humans alike. While she
specializes in “Natural Horsemanship” methods, she does not adhere to any
one particular method. Rather, her focus is always on deepening the level of
communication, therefore strengthening the bond between horse and human
partner. She teaches how to “listen to your horse” and how to communicate
in a way your horse can understand, using a lot of positive reinforcement
for both horse and rider, setting up a win-win partnership. Jill enjoys
passing on her knowledge and experience to benefit other horse lovers and
their horses.

These exceptional clinics will help bring out
the best in you and your horse. You'll be amazed at the depth of
cooperation and plain old fun you'll have with your horse while you both learn
to be better partners through mutual trust and respect. Soon you won't
just ride -- You'll dance!
