FAQs

  • Both mentorship experiences are structured to involve three core dimensions: 1) Horsemanship, 2) Personal Development, 3) Business & Marketing. The main difference between the two experiences is that the Colt Starting Mentorship will focus more on refining the horsemanship skills that are needed before the first ride on a horse happens, where the Foundations Mentorship will focus more on what happens after a colt has been started.

  • This will benefit every horse owner, even if you never plan to put the first ride on a colt. This mentorship experience is designed to benefit all horse owners, trainers, and breeders by helping them be more consistent with their training programs, learning the skills needed to efficiently and effectively progress their horse through the training process.

    Those that send their horses to trainers to start will be able to have those horses so much better prepared that it can save them thousands of dollars in training and make their trainers eager to ride those horses as they will be more prepared.
