So often life brings us lessons we did not expect. Lessons we are not even aware of until we look at the situation that has changed and see the ways in which it has changed us. I started my career with horses as a trainer and instructor at the age of 18 with my own business in northern New Mexico. I owned and operated 3 schools of what I called "natural horse care & training" long before I heard anyone else use the terms. I made up individual, custom blends of herbs for my horses and the boarders'. I taught that kindness and a gentle attitude would bring lasting results. Then life took me on "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride", finally depositing me here, again in New Mexico, precious land of Enchantment, to do exactly what I started out doing in the late 1960's and early '70's! That is: To hold the form of compassionate and nature based ways of relating to horses, caring for horses, loving horses and helping people. The internet now offers this new way of bringing the old ideas out to share and, as soon as we are situated on out new little farm; Dharmahorse will send down deep, nourishing roots to ground our compassionate principles! We will be contacting others to join us on this natural path to horses!
