- Charles Wilhelm - www.charleswilhelm.com
- Where many trainers may
briefly address the emotional, mental and physical
areas of the horses, Charles Wilhelm's Ultimate
Foundation Training® methods focus intensely
on these critical aspects. Riders are taught
simple building block exercises that teach them
to recognize and immediately respond to behaviors
with pressure and release cues. Charles has
long recognized that the rider must learn to
get the same results he himself is able to get
from the horse. His motto "Success Through
Knowledge" is indicative of his emphasis
on education of the horseperson first and foremost.

- Jacob Clark - heavenswarriorshorsetraining.webs.com
- I have been training horses for almost ten years. The one thing that sets my business apart is that I get the owner into the training lesson with the horse. I believe in an intimate relationship between a horse and its owner. Unlike other trainers who train the horse and give it to the owner, I involve the owner in the lesson so that they will be able to take over the training of their own horse. I use the natural horsemanship style, which allows the horse to be more comfortable in the training. My end result will have your horse ready for a nice comfortable trail ride, free of stress and worry. I want your riding time with your horse to be memorable, not filled with worry about what is around the next corner, and one where you are out together bonding and spending quality time with each other.

- Susan Johnston - www.naturalsavvy.com
- 2 Star Parelli Instructor. In 1997, after purchasing a 2-year-old Arabian,
I discovered Parelli Natural HorseManShip.
I wanted to start my own horse, so I searched
for a program that would strengthen our
relationship. I attended many “natural”
clinics by Ray Hunt, Buck Brannaman, etc.,
but it wasn’t until I saw Pat and Linda
do a demonstration at Industry Hills, CA.,
that I found what I was looking for. I knew
their step-by-step approach was the best
way for me to accelerate my horsemanship
skills, stay safe and build a language with
my horse. From that point on, I dedicated
myself to the study of PNH. After realizing
my career was getting in the way of my horsemanship,
I resigned after 15 years in the pharmaceutical
industry, to pursue my passion and teach
Parelli Natural HorseManShip. Since then,
I have spent almost 8 months at the Parelli
International Study Center in Colorado,
advancing my horsemanship and assistant
teaching. My journey continues…

Sheryl Lynde clinics are offered on a regular

I offer are either conducted at my ranch or

ground manners, training an arena worked horse
for trail riding, start a young horse or problem
solve such as rearing or bucking. I take in
horses on a weekly or monthly basis and limit
the number to 4 horses per month, which allows
me enough time to devote to each one. The methods
I teach are John Lyons and are universal and
essential for all disciplines - Western Pleasure,
Reining, English, etc. I specialize in more
control with lighter hands, responsiveness,
softness, collection at all gaits and stops.

- Dennis Reis - www.reisranch.com
- Dennis Reis has developed principles which are
based on age-old horse handling methods. For over
fifteen years Dennis has been teaching these methods
and principles. His "Universal Horsemanship"
workshops are taught in an environment where
the horse is allowed to express himself. Students
learn about the horse's true nature through exercises
that encourage the horse to make his own decisions
without restraint or force. Dennis also teaches
skills that enable students to act as herd leader
to their horses. Because his students work with
the horse's nature instead of trying to control
it, they have willing, happy, safe horses.
