Practical Horsemanship Demonstrations
Practical Horsemanship is a collaboration between Dan Wilson and Grant Bazin, who have been involved with horses their whole lives. They have both worked as riders and ground handlers for Monty and Kelly during their demonstrations in the UK and Europer and are Recommended Associates for Cornwall/Devon and Oxfordshire/Northamptonshire/Warwickshire respectively. The methods they utilise are those of non-violence and using the horses own inbuilt body language to establish clear boundaries, allowing them to train horses in a calmer and safer way. The Practical Horsemanship Inaugral Tour begins in April 2007 and we will be visiting the following locations:
Tuesday 3rd April - Blewbury RC, Didcot, Oxon Wednesday 4th April - Crofton Manor EC, Fareham, Hampshire Tuesday 10th April - South Wales EC, Mid Glamorgan, Wales Wednesday 11th April - *Clwyd SRC, Nr Wrexham, Wales Thursday 12th April - Croft Top EC, Accrington Lancashire Friday 13th April - Birstwith Livery Stables, Harrogate, Yorkshire Saturday 14th April - *Rodbaston College, Penkridge, Stafford Sunday 15th April - Moulton College, Northamptonshire Monday 16th April - Poplar Park EC, Woodbridge, Suffolk Tuesday 17th April - Plumpton College, Nr Lewes, Sussex Wednesday 18th April - The Grange EC, Okehampton, Devon Thursday 19th April - Lands End Riding Centre, Nr Penzance, Cornwall
Doors open at 6.30pm, demonstration starts at 7.30pm

Hi Jenny, Is there a flyer? Can you put one on the website as a pdf file that can be downloaded? I can them print some out and put them in places round North East Wales. I'll add it to the BHS NE Wales What's On, if that's okay.

That would be great, thank you!
There is indeed a flyer, we're hoping to get them online tomorrow so people can print them out if they wish to (it would be very much appreciated!). I'll let you know when they are up!
