Classes & Seminars Sponsored by LPF

Our classes and seminars are designed to help educate the individual horse owner and any person wanting more natural information in a condensed format, weather they compete or pleasure ride. All topics come from a natural perspective with over 20 years of our own research compiled from multiple sources (books, lectures, internet, classes, other natural practitioners). We implement what we learn from these sources at our farm so we can document for ourselves how these applications work in the practical horse world. We keep case studies on our horses (before & after) and track their natural progression. What we observe is what we want to pass on so we can help guide anyone seeking solutions to their horse care issues.

OUR FOCUS IS ABOUT THE GOOD OF THE HORSE!!!!


We offer classes and seminars on many different Natural Horse Management Topics including, but not limited to:
*Natural domestic diets & nutritional supplement information
*Parasite control options
*Benefits of 16-24 hr turn out
*How to mimic wild terrain & Barefoot Natural Hoof Care (AHA)
*Importance of Equine dentistry & how to safely perform a basic dental exam without sedation
*Saddle fitting & Importance of saddle fit to all equine partners
*Equine Massage & stress point release
*Theory of Natural Horsemanship Techniques & Daily Application for consistent training at home

Cost for classes & Seminars:
One-on-one class $20
2 or more people $10 per person
Classes are 1 – 3 hours in length depending on topics covered

Some topics are also covered in-depth on special occasions by outside experts in their fields (dental, massage, Advanced Barefoot Natural Hoof Care). Information & schedule will be posted as these new classes are incorporated into LPF program & scheduled with the speakers.
