Our 5th annual gentling clinic here in California at the Wild Horse Sanctuary! I assist Anna in instructing this clinic and it sells out every year, so if you’re interested, inquire early! Visit http://www.reachouttohorses.com/training.html#gentling to read about the workshop format, topics covered, pricing, and to see video footage from years past. Contact me directly for information about summertime lodging and travel in the Shingletown area.

Student participants are each allocated one wild / untouched or remedial wild horse to gentle over the course of 7 days under Anna’s instruction. How far each horse comes depends on the horse and the student, but typically you are introduced to many holistic methods of accomplishing first acknowledgement and touch, haltering, yields, baby steps, leading, picking up feet, bathing, and spookbusting.

Auditing is also available. Auditors may come for a day or the whole week to participate in lectures and exercises, and to observe the gentling, but are not allocated a horse.

Lectures take place outdoors and students are spaced well-apart from each other. Room for social distancing is provided.

The talent show and camaraderie are legendary, truly this clinic is always a special experience that changes lives!

Location: Wild Horse Sanctuary, Shingletown, California
