Monty Roberts - Hartpury, Oct 31st

[yak]

Anyone going to the demo above? I may go with a friend from the yard - but the week before we are having an RA out to do some groundwork with us, so need to watch the old pennnies.

We went to the last demo he did at Hartpury and he was really very good - if you haven't seen him do a demo, you really must. Some of it's a bit American and cheesey, and I'm a bit of a sceptic about what he says he's done and he hasn't, but ain't half good with the horses! Kelly was also really good, made you believe that even us mere mortals could one day be that good with so many different horses....

Also, if anyone ever hears of Mark Rashid doing clinics over here next year, give me a shout -- I forget to check when he's over here, and always miss him....

Ooh which RA you got coming? Sarah Weston? Or Nicole/Adam?

What are they coming for? If you're poor then don't forget Carol has done the 5 Day Foundation Course so could be helpful.....

I saw Monty some years ago now and much preferred him to Pat Parelli who was very Americancheeseball!
Monty is pretty genuine and when I first met Kelly she spoke alot about how he puts his money where his mouth is. If you read up on him he was winning western championships at the age of 4!!
I assisted on Kelly's course in August and will be part of the team at Your Horse Live next month; it's great to be around such good energy, but at the same time I don't have any urge to go on any of the courses! I would highly recommend them though!

Now, Mark Rashid... I am very intrigued to see him in action...and I must get his books!
When he next tours over here we will have to make sure we all go!

Sarah is coming out.

Mark Rashid, is - like - amazin.

[Laura Chandi]

Ah Sarah...she's good; Carol knows her better than me, but have seen her in action and thought she was 'on it' as they say! ;D

I may take the trip up to Surrey as theres a demo there. Never seen him so would be all new to me! There is a girl on my yard whose into Parrelli but that's different isn't it? She may be interested in coming with me hopefully.
