Shadow Mountain Stables Natural Horse Training Philosophy 

Clay Harper crop.jpg (155649 bytes)Why do our colorful quality thoroughbreds have such sweet dispositions and gentle temperament?  How are they able to be desensitized and ridden with what seems like such little effort?  The answer is professional  natural horsemanship trainers (sometimes called "horse whisperers.")  This natural method of communicating with the horse rather than hurting him/her to make them comply, creates a willing partnership.  All of our horses for sale have been started on Natural Horse training.     

At Shadow Mountain Stables we are committed and dedicated to Natural Horsemanship (NH).  Where learning occurs as a result of using body language, sometimes referred to as "Equis," language (i.e. Horse Whispering) where you  "speak" to the horse using what the horse already knows. We follow and respect the great trainers who pioneered this form of non violent  technique, such as Monty Roberts, Frank Bell, Clay Harper (pictured top left with Jan at Temecula clinic and right at Shadow Mountain Stables), Josh Lyons, Richard Shrake, Sylvia Scott, Pat Parelli, Clinton Anderson and more.
