Parelli Working Student oppertunity in France

For anyone interested in developing their horsemanship skills, whatever their goal, I would really recommend having a look at the working student placements at Haras Natural du Plessis, the home and horsemanship centre of 3* Parelli Professional Marie-Claire de Selliers.

I have been a working student here for 5 months so far and have loved every minute of it! I have learned so much and gained so much more confidence in my skills, and I have tried things I never dreamt I would do!

A typical day entails breakfast at 7am followed by a morning of looking after the horses, lunch at 12.30 and then an afternoon dedicated to horsemanship.

I have swam in a lake on my horse, ridden bridleless around the forest, ponied young horses, been assigned three young horses as project horses to develop and bring on... so much I couldn't possibly list it all here. I do have a blog in which I go into more detail at http://fromfasttracktofrance.blogspot.com/2011/12/its-beginning-to-feel-lot-like.html

As well as hands on horsemanship there are theory and simulation sessions.

There are lots of oppertunities to learn more about horsehusbandry and facility management too!

Boot camps for 2012 will take place:

29th January to 7th February
29th April to 8th May

If you have any questions feel free to email me on cdebie25@gmail.com!

I hope you have all had a great Christmas and wish you a fantastic new year!
