Joyful frolics in the golden light, our mare herd loves to put on a show. I could watch them endlessly: they are true poetry in motion. Each of them is so special in their own right but all together they are pure magic. Living in harmony in this little slice of paradise, they form quite literally a rainbow of colors, the combination of which is found nowhere else in the world.

My heart is so full after this week. So many spectacular people traveled from quite literally thousands of miles away to our little slice of heaven in the redwoods to participate in this clinic with Pippa Callanan. I feel so incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such a wonderful herd of humans that are so dedicated to learning and growing. I am beyond proud of my dearest friends and clients who I get to watch blossom in their partnerships with their horses. There were so many beautiful sessions with horses and humans whom I love so much and who’s journeys I am so invested in - it brought me to tears seeing them so successful. And I’m beyond proud of my stallions who participated in the clinic and managed so well despite this being their first multi day riding clinic with lots of auditors, a loudspeaker, and outside horses coming and going as well as overnighting in their normally exceedingly peaceful quiet home.

This week has left me with a feeling of deepened clarity, commitment, and a ever expanding gratitude for community. Thank you to each and every participant and auditor who came and showered love and support on every single session. Thank you especially to those who traveled from to far away to learn and grow. Thank you Pippa for your grace and wisdom, for your gentle guidance, for your commitment to the growth edge and encouragement to believe in our horses. Thank you for honoring each pair that showed up, as they were in that moment. Truly such a refreshing and wonderful experience.

I am so looking forward to continuing to host these clinics and am already eagerly planning for Spring 2024. If you would like a spot please reach out as soon as possible - this time I will be requiring minimum 2 session participation after seeing and feeling how crucial that was to the process.

Breathtaking Cybele, our beautiful black double pearl PRE looking lovely after a haircut today. I am so proud of the graceful, gentle, brilliant mare she is growing up to be. As she matures she is proving to be everything I hoped for and more, and keeps me enchanted with her generous spirit as well as her otherworldly color.

Looking forward to a 2024 foal from her and our Lancero Salvatella - Buckskin Pearl PRE Stallion.
