These Clinics are The Foundation For Liberated Horsemanship’s Natural Hoof Care Training Programs

Participants receive a well rounded background in the theory of the natural trim and factors that can affect its outcome along with detailed practical instruction and supervised trimming experience.

Here’s what Brian Hampson, PhD Scholar and founder of the Australian Brumby Research Unit, School of Veterinary Sciences, University of Queensland, wrote in his Newsletter after attending the Gateway Clinics

In October Brian attended a natural hoof care clinic conducted by Liberated Horsemanship (http://www.liberatedhorsemanship.com/) in the USA. This was a great experience for me. I learnt a great deal about caring for horses and their feet from this team of knowledgeable and very experienced horse people. We traded a great deal of information during the 1 week course. I came home and re-trimmed all of my horses (all 15 of them!) and felt confident that I was doing the best thing for them. I would encourage people to attend this clinic, or one similar, no matter what level of experience or knowledge they have. Several of Liberated Horsemanship’s field instructors attended the seminar to assist with students learning but also to continue their own education. This is an organisation that has the welfare of the horse as its main priority. The financial commitment they made to take me to the States is proof of their commitment to scientific advancement and continuing education in equine care. 

During the USA visit I gave a 6 hour presentation of the teams work in St Louis. Liberated Horsemanship fully sponsored my trip to the USA for this purpose and I am greatly appreciative to Bruce Nock and his team for allowing me the opportunity to travel there and speak.”
