In large part, the horses determine the flow of a Horse Speak clinic, making each clinic a unique experience based on what the horses bring to it. Sharon has learning objectives for participants, but the horses lead the way. Sharon’s teaching is based on what the individual horses are presenting in the moment and the experience level of the participants.
We strongly prefer to use the facility’s horses during clinics for Sharon’s demonstrations and for clinic participants’ learning and practice. Horses who are “at home” can be better teachers!
