Liberty Horse Training --
Creating a true bond through the language of the horse.

At liberty, in a free environment, unrestrained and with the absence of tack. A bond is created through a series of companionship interactions that are naturally enjoyable to horses.

This bond is the key to a magical relationship with your horse.

David Lichman, Parelli 5 star Instructor
     


http://www.davidlichman.com/		   As one of Pat Parelli's top rated instructors, I travel all over the world helping people to get extraordinary results with horses. Teaching Pat's system has taken me from Vancouver to Virginia and from Hawaii to Heidelberg. I have handled thousands of horses at hundreds of clinics, from every breed and discipline.

In order to earn Premier Rated Instructor status, I studied for months at a time directly with Pat. Prior to the establishment of the International Study Center in Colorado, this meant traveling thousands of miles on the road. Since 1996 I have spent from one to four months each Summer at his ranch.

Don Knapp, Parelli 4 Star Instructor
     



http://www.donknappsavvy.com		   In 1995, I first rode with Pat Parelli at a clinic in Armstrong, BC, and it changed my life. In 1996, I moved to Colorado and spent the next 3 years studying with Pat and Linda at their ranch in Pagosa Springs.

I received my 3 Star Rating in Instructorship, Foundation Training and as a Young Horse Specialist. I have also received Star Ratings in Difficult Horses, Reining, and Working Cattle.

I was an Instructor for Pat Parelli from the fall of 1996 thru the spring of 2007, when I decided to better serve the horse community by going on my own.
