I would love to introduce you to the Calming technique, before our Clinic / Live Workshop starts. I want you to have time to really digest and understand our approach before you will try it with your horses. I want you to feel comfortable and not to hurry yourself. I’d love you to have time

During last hundred years we had many scientific discoveries on how people and animals learn new things.
