Educational Courses

Come and have the experience of a lifetime with our expert tuition in the art of 'horse whispering' and equine behaviour. It will change the way you view not only your relationships with horses, but also the people around you and the relationship you have with yourself.

Reservations can only be made on receipt of a 50% deposit. You also require to be a member of the Intelligent Horsemanship Association which costs £25 per year and can be joined at the same time as booking a course. We accept Credit Cards and Switch/Maestro. You can phone us on 01488 71300 with your number.

Please telephone the office to confirm availability on courses before sending in your application: 01488 71300

Due to frequent requests and a meeting with our insurers, Intelligent Horsemanship is now able to take students aged 16 years and over (previously it was 18 years and over). Although more mature students are more the norm for our courses, the younger students we have accepted in the past have not only proved very able but also fitted in well with the groups.

Under 16s will still be accepted on the Perfect Manners courses provided they are accompanied
(as a student, spectator or helper) by a parent or Guardian.

All courses start at 9am so please arrive for registration beforehand, classes should finish at 5pm but please check with your tutor on the day if running later would cause you problems or if you need to leave earlier.

More dates will be added for 2012 as soon as we have them.

Late spaces do sometimes become available. Please email us on  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it  or ring 01488 71300 if you would like to go on our waiting list.
