"Over the years, I have attended a number of natural horsemanship clinics, read lots of NH books, and seen numerous NH videos...but none of those compare to having watched you work with horses and communicate with them at their level of understanding!..."

"I just want you to know that you alone are the reason that
tonight I cleaned, tacked and rode my horse all by myself.
What may seem like everyday activities to seasoned
riders, to me were the greatest accomplishments I've
had in a long time..."

"Some of the great trainers are amazing with the animals, but then can be kind of harsh or come across in a way that makes the student feel dumb or embarassed. Some have great people skills, but aren't as effective with our four-legged friends! SYLVIA, though, excels in both areas and always makes me and my horse, Sampson, feel comfortable at all times."

"Sylvia came out to work with our wild PMU foal, Annabelle, and after only one session, Annabelle willingly joined up with Sylvia and allowed Sylvia to stroke her all over, and she was very receptive to the bonding and pressure and release techniques that Sylvia applied. After that first training session, our foal was not wild or scared of humans anymore at all!"

"So many people told me I should just give up on Brownie. Even a vet of mine had said Brownie was a "WITCH!" Oh how wrong they all were!! I just refused to give up on her and you only helped me to find what I knew in my heart was there in that mare all along."

"I was lucky enough get some much needed one-on-one time with Sylvia. Immediately she knew that my horse Dancer's biggest problem was insecurity. Within five minutes she taught Dancer some ground manners and taught me how to begin to be her leader. I was blown away. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. My horse immediately seemed calmer and more secure when Sylvia took charge."

"Back in June '04, I wrote to you and asked you if old abused horses stood a chance of ever being turned around. You responded to my email, and for that "Bull," the horse, and myself thank you from the very bottom of our hearts!..."

 It Was a Moment I Will Never Forget!

"With all my years of experience in rescuing starved and abused horses, I have never seen a horse so fearful of humans as Espiritu was. To see Espiritu’s fear disappear for that short time she was with Sylvia was amazing, and from there, after Sylvia left, Espiritu’s trust slowly grew to allow humans once again in her life."

    What a Master Sylvia Scott is With Horses!
    "I know that Sylvia is always the first to say, 'It's not about me; it's all about Natural Horsemanship,' but she has a natural ability with horses and it comes from her heart! That combined with NH makes a master!"
     

Rachel Falwell

    "Being taught is always much better than just having something done for you. That indeed is what Sylvia's method is about. Her emphasis is on not simply fixing a horse's problems herself, but strongly on training the owners, not just the horse, so that we gain the same skills and knowledge quickly."
