— Join Us For Our Tenth Anniversary Celebration —
This year Jane Strong and David Sonatore will do a live demonstration to show you exactly how we cultivate the kind of non-verbal communication that builds trust and cooperation from our horses. These skills translate directly to the self awareness, emotional intelligence and mental agility it takes to succeed in relationships with others at home and in their communities.

And, we’ll give you the chance to experience for yourself how The Equus Effect Program engages horses with the men and women we serve to promote respect, attunement, empathy and collaboration.

We are also fortunate enough to have Bettina Drummond’s protégé Elizabeth David-Zoerhof demonstrate the power of collaboration at the big Quarry Hill Arena. In this dramatic musical performance, you’ll see just how this trust translates to the highest form of the equestrian arts. Elizabeth’s horse ‘Xarrie’ is a 12 year-old buckskin Lusitano. They both trained with Bettina and use the same ground skills we teach to begin the ascent to this magnificent collaboration between horse and human.
And once again, we are excited to have the fabulous Joint Chiefs accompany the performance!
