Thank you so very much for the opportunity to audit your clinic this past weekend. I was only able to audit on Saturday because I work on Sundays. but it was great to be able to attend, even if for one day. My friends and I drove down from upstate New York, (180 miles round trip), and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves despite the weather. We each learned so much from you and the clinic participants. You certainly created an excellent environment for learning and demonstrated the savvy that is the heart of Parelli Natural Horsemanship.
I hope to attend your next clinic and in the meantime will look forward to putting into practice the suggestion you gave me regarding getting my horse "unstuck" when he goes left brain introvert. Thankfully, he is primarily left brain extrovert, (thankfully?), but you gave me a quiver to pull out when he does convert to introvert!
Again, much thanks for allowing me and my friends the opportunity to further our journey in Natural Horsemanship!
Best regards,
Lauren...

On March 26 we had a Horseopoly Play day and Auction at Golden Stride Walker Ranch West. More than $7,000 was raised to benefit the Parelli Fund! It was SO much fun!! Check out a slideshow that Lydia did from pictures she took at the Play day (turn up your sound)...and stay tuned for more pictures from Coco!!

Please pass along that this was one of the best workshops I have attended yet. Tina's teaching style and demeanor are top notch and she is a true representative of the Parelli philosophy. Pat would be VERY proud!!!
I loved that she was open to student interaction, never making us feel like our questions or comments were elementary or silly. That she addressed them each with detail and thought towards not only our horse's horsenality but our personalities as students. I feel like she is one of the few instructors I have worked with that really teaches based on my learning style. As a teacher myself, I find great value in this.
I also enjoyed the pace of the workshop - it wasn't too rigid and overly planned. It had a relaxed atmosphere almost mirroring that of us and our horses (all Introverts!). I felt very welcomed, comfortable and confident in the environment she provided.
I cannot wait for the next play date - I just can't get enough and am trying to soak up all the knowledge I can get while furthering my journey with Parelli... :) Holly, Phoenix, AZ

I had audited a couple of clinics prior, but never took my horse. This was my first time to attend a workshop as a participant.
I had a great time and everything was well done. Tina is a great instructor. She is well organized and clear in her explanations. There was no pressure to perform and I felt relaxed as did my horse. I learned a lot and found parts that need fixing and places to be more particular.
I have attended several savvy conferences, tour stops and conferences. I felt as if Pat and Linda were talking to us through Tina. A lot refreshed my memory and I could see the demonstrations all over again.
Thanks for a great day and a great pathway for learning!! Geri Phoenix, AZ

Clinic was fantastic, Tina does such a wonderful job! Anne Ellicottville, NY

It was magical. I really learned a lot about a lot. The seven games are even more ingrained in my brain and I feel I have a much better handle on them. I am going to continue working with Alabama to prepare her for Arizona in the spring. I worked with my Arab, "Jaz", yesterday on the seven games and we got through friendly, porcupine and some driving. I plan to do a bit with him again today. It's momentum for me also.....
So THANK YOU Tina! Your manor is amazing. I felt totally at easy with you as a coach/instructor. I look forward to actually working towards my levels and seeing you again sooner than later!
Thank you also for helping me to learn about ME. sometimes it takes a brick wall to wake us up. Slow down Slow down slow down. Everyone tells me I am manic (in a nice way) but I guess I never really saw it. slowing down with the seven games (actually the 4 phases) really has made an impact on my "vision". Bless you!

The clinic this past weekend was wonderful! It did not occure to me until yesterday that it was the most positive experience I've ever had with an equine professional and Tina was so accessible for any questions or feedback that I had! She related so well to everyone and seemed to be able to address the issues/questions without making me feel wrong. In fact it didn't seem like anyone, horses or people, ever felt wrong!
I especially appreciate her encouragement and her attention to the details! She noticed things that most people don't and it made me feel even more confident in my relationship with my horse. It was so nice to be somewhere where savvy is appreciated and I don't have to try to defend/and or explain what I do with my horse. On top of being a weekend sanctuary for me, it also helped my friend who came with me to see the real benefits of the Parelli program. I believe that from this point forward I will now have someone else to be as excited about building a relationship with horses as I am!
The facilities were beautiful and well maintained the entire weekend just as they were last time I was there and every effort was made to make myself and my horse comfortable in our home away from home! Erin Ellicottville, NY

We had a great time at Golden Stride Walker Ranch.Tina is an amazing instructor and I've come home with a several new ideas and techniques. This clinic really helped raise my awareness, I realized how far I've come and the direction I'm heading in and have a tool box full of new tools to help accomplish my goals. I have a better understanding of how to truly partner with my horse Sassy and looking forward to applying all of what I've learned
Can't wait for level 3 in June. Colleen, Ellicottville, NY

Just wanted to make sure you got in alright, and to say THANK YOU!!!! again for the awesome weekend. It was totally worth everything, what an incredible three days.
Also, after you left Splash backed all the way into the trailer (twice!) and we got some simple lead changes on a circling game. :D Annnnd he loaded really well, it was possibly the best yet!
Thanks again! :) Jessie Horseheads, NY
