Way of the Horse®
This is Franklin's way of bringing the Horse Whisperer Experience to people around the world. Participants learn how to create the most powerful connection they have ever had with their horse and keep it! training seminars typically last 2 days. Before any communication between horse and human becomes successful there has to be a clear and conscious connection. In advance of all the wonderful, gentle techniques of "starting" and training horses, "problem solving" for horses and riding them, it is imperative to establish this clear and conscious connection with your own intuitive self first and then with your horse.

This seminar will teach you those skills, and show you the path to building the most successful relationship possible with your equine.
Equine Facilitated Learning
In modern times, it has been clinically documented that just being around horses changes the brain wave patterns of humans. We calm down and become more centered and focused in the present when we are with horses. We are transformed in a very positive way when in the presence of horses. It is no wonder that the beneficial effects of positive and appropriate interaction with horses should prove therapeutic to grownups and children alike. Startling improvement has been observed in children with various mental and emotional challenges from A.D.D. to Autism, to anti-social violent behavior. Franklin Offers a program uniquely taylored to these individuals and their families.
