I had my first pony at six years old, and now in my 50's my horses are still my best friends and my most important teachers. I have ridden, trained and owned several breeds of horses, including gaited horses. Over the years I have studied traditional and natural horsemanship from many sources. I have taught here at the ranch and around Manitoba for several years as well as in Quebec, Saskatchewan and Ontario.
Equine behaviour and intuitive studies have been my emphasis over the last few years. I have spent years training or retraining horses and learning what the horse thinks and feels and how to apply that to helping horse and rider communicate and enjoy each other more synergistically.
My "Freedom With Horses" is about helping you and your horse connect on all levels. Then we go someplace and do things with that connection that allow you and your horse to enjoy your time together. You connect from the heart, lead with harmonic movements, softness and feeling. Then ride in pleasure and joy experiencing a new freedom.
Also in the last 3 years I have studied and practiced natural Hoofcare with my horses. I now offer my "BF Hoof Health" courses which incorporates barefoot hoofcare and learning how to offer your horse a healthy, natural environment and lifestyle.
I continue to study the ways of gentle horsemen and women, seeking always deeper knowledge of the body and soul of the horse. Some of my most important mentors are Klaus Hempfling, Carolyn Resnick, Mark Rashid and Linda Kohanov. They have helped shape and confirm my ideas of being with horses.
