When you send your horse to us for training, your horse will have a solid foundation and impeccable manners. Our program uses gentle communication and absolutely no violence or rough handling. A relationship of mutual respect and trust is built between horse and human.
Dan Burle and Ed Dabney
As our international training and clinic business has rapidly grown requiring Ed to be in Europe for almost half the year, we have entrusted our US horse training business to our good friend, long time partner and senior trainer, Dan Burle.
"I have complete confidence and trust in in Dan to take care of our US horse owners in the same way as I would if I were here. Dan has proven to me time after time that he has a natural talent with difficult or young horses and has a wonderful ability as a patient teacher with owners and riders. Dan pays close attention to all the details and is concerned about the total well-being of every horse sent to us for training." Ed Dabney
TRAINING
Our comprehensive training program for your horse covers the following:
Through the application of our highly effective Six Keys to Harmony program, you will learn to open the line of communication between you and your horse by developing a relationship based on Lightness, Respect and Trust, through the use of Gentle, Natural Horsemanship Techniques.
You are welcome to come watch any of the training sessions. Toward the end of the training period we'll make appointments for personal instruction with you in order to transfer the cues and exercises over to you so you can be consistent with your horse's handling and riding after he goes home.
"Whether it is life or horses, when you do what's right it creates trust. Where there is trust there is harmony. These methods of gentle horsemanship work well for me and will for you too because of the true unity and effective communication that will develop between horse and rider."
