Horse training and natural horsemanship

horse training
Patagonia Riding Adventure

“This website, like all of Franklin's work, is dedicated to supporting excellence in the horse/human relationship globally, through compassionate and wisdom based horsemanship.”

Whether a competitive rider, trail rider, Western or English discipline, your success with your equine is based on the depth and quality of the trust you have established with your horse, along with appropriate and practiced skills and clear and practical knowledge about horses.

Showing humans how to have the highest and best relationship with their horses and how to keep it has always been one of Franklin's main goals as well. To be good with horses at a high level requires us humans to come forward with our best qualities and attributes. Similar to a 'great parent', successful relationships with horses require compassion, kindness, precision, patience, clarity, real knowledge (not just opinions and projections), great leadership and more. Franklin has always felt that practicing appropriate interaction with horses helps humans to become more highly functional in all their relationships. Thus, in all his programs, he teaches success with horses as life enrichment for the human as well as the horse. Be as good as you can be for your horse just like you would for your child is one of Franklin's mottos.

Franklin is based in Snowmass, Colorado and is available for clinics and seminars throughout the year in Colorado (immersion programs) as well as your home area whether in the US or around the world. Attending a horsemanship seminar with Franklin Levinson will absolutely increase your success with your horse, no matter what the activity. Franklin has 40+ years experience as a professional horseman. Long before the 'natural horsemanship' craze, Franklin was teaching and training horses using his own gentle, effective methods. Experience one of the few, true remaining innovators of gentle, successful horsemanship, as well as Equine Facilitated Learning, by attending a Franklin Levinson seminar.

For those of you traveling to Maui, Franklin created The Maui Horse Whisperer Experience as a wonderful way to advance your horsemanship and enjoy a tropical island paradise vacation all at once.

RECENT & UPCOMING EVENTS...

FRANKLIN IS NOW IN GREECE.
He will be there through the month of July, 2009.

Franklin presented his first two day clinic at the Hellenic Riding Club this past December, 2008. This is the oldest, most beautiful and prestigious riding club in all Greece. It is located in the heart of Athens. The Hellenic Riding Club has a history of producing some of Greece's top riders for the Grand Prix circuit as well as Olympic hopefuls. It was truly an honor for Franklin, the first American gentle horse trainer, to have been invited to teach a seminar there. This invitation was an indication of the Hellenic Riding Club's desire to not only produce top riders, but to equally promote the mental and emotional well-being of their horses and have their riders gain more wisdom about the horse itself. For those horse enthusiasts visiting Franklin's website, who are located in Greece and Europe, Franklin strongly urges a visit or inquiry into the Hellenic Riding Club through this link or a visit in person. Visit The Hellenic Riding Club at: http://www.eio.org.gr/.

Archery on horsebackUnique, fun and available to all living or visiting in Greece is the ancient sport of archery on horseback. Visit this website for a good look! Franklin was there recently and gave it a try! The site is written in Greek, however you can use Google Translate and type in this URL: http://www.horsebackarcherygr.com/RELEASE.html
