All of the Workshops focus on the following core ideas:

Whether managing horses or people,
establishing trust and mutual respect is the
key to all successful relationships.

Just as with humans, a horse's behavior is
a reflection of the person who leads it.

self-preservation.  Make them feel safe and they
can do their job. People are no different.

Using force can create resistance and
aggression. "Less" is often "more".
