For horses ....

Reins of Hope in partnership with Natural Touch Horsemanship offers Colt starting clinics.

To truly have an obedient horse you must have a solid foundation. Colt starting begins with a good foundation of 60 ground work exercises. The exercises may include backing, obstacles, feet handling, desensitizing, to encouraging a soft, supple, and willing horse, or 2 to 3 weeks under saddle work.

Colts are exposed to all that nature has to offer. Without these ingredients you will not have a willing partner.

Our clinics also include mandatory 2-day training for the rider or owner. Upon completion of training you will be ready to begin your new journey with your willing partner.
