🐴✨ Become SPUR Model Certified at 3F Ranch! ✨🐴
We are incredibly excited to announce that The SPUR Model Facilitator Training Workshop is coming to 3F Ranch in Edmond, Oklahoma on June 26-27, 2026!
For the past several years, 3F Ranch has been privileged to utilize and learn from the principles behind the SPUR Model. Through our mentor program, senior outreach, veterans programs, special needs services, and community events, we have seen firsthand how horses have the ability to help people build confidence, strengthen relationships, improve communication, and develop greater self-awareness.
Because of these principles, we have had the opportunity to impact hundreds of lives—and likely well over a thousand interactions through our various programs and community partnerships. The lessons horses teach about trust, boundaries, leadership, and connection continue to change lives every day.
The SPUR Model was developed by Johnny Clark, LMSW, and Shannon Curry, M.S., through their work with the Tulsa Boys' Home. It is an Equine-Facilitated Social Intelligence Approach to Relationship Building, designed to help individuals improve their ability to connect and relate to others through experiential activities with horses. Johnny Clark has spent decades working with youth, families, and equine-assisted programs and is recognized for his innovative work helping people develop social intelligence and healthier relationships.
This certification is ideal for: ✅ Equine professionals
✅ Mentors and coaches
✅ Social workers and counselors
✅ Educators
✅ Ministry leaders
✅ Nonprofit organizations
✅ Anyone interested in utilizing horses to facilitate personal growth and relationship building
Over two days, participants will receive instruction, demonstrations, experiential learning, discussions, a professional manual, and certification.
At 3F Ranch, we believe horses are more than animals—they are incredible teachers. We are honored to host this training and bring this opportunity to Oklahoma.
