Don’t miss this exciting and unique opportunity that combines advanced behavioral science lectures and hands-on training with horses!  Participants will work directly with a variety of horses, with a focus on teaching cooperative care and husbandry, overcoming fear, resolving behavior challenges, and introducing tack and equipment.  Note – all training is on the ground – this is a non-riding event.  Prior equine experience helpful but not required.

Instructors for this workshop are Ken McCort and Sharon Madere.
