Hi everyone in Australia! Just a reminder that Lynn Mitchell, one of Monty's certified instructors, is running two introductory courses in Queensland this year. The first is to be held from the 25th of June to the 3rd of July, or if you can't make it to that one, Lynn is also holding another one in September (10th to the 18th). I'm attending the June course, and I am very excited about having someone with Lynn's experience to help me learn Monty's methods better! There is only a maximum of 8 places at each course, so if you are keen contact Lynn www.schoolofequus.com.au
Hope to meet some of you there!

Woohoo, can't wait!
Is she going to be in any other states??
Has anyone heard of courses run by rob Horne, he is listed as an Aussie trainer but I can't find much info on him. I am doing Lynns course in sept and the intro early next year, rob is about 600 kms closer to home though!!
Hello Shelly
.
Rob Horne's website is www.robhorne.net.au but I just looked and its closed for maintenance. His corporate site is http://www.horsesforcourses.net.au/course_content.html
.
I contacted him about doing my Intro Course last year and I can't exactly remember how the conversation went, but some how I got put onto Lynn...
.
Your best bet would be to contact him directly. His email address is rhorne@exemail.com.au
.
He and his wife were very nice to me when I spoke to them.

See you later,

Hi everyone,
I just completed the 9 day Monty Roberts Introductory Course with Lynn Mitchell in Queensland, and I just wanted to share with you all how amazing it was! A fabulous life experience.
Lynn was an exceptional teacher, and I recommend to everyone in Australia to do what you can to attend one of her courses. I have been around horses all of my life (I'm 29 now, and I would have been lifted onto a horse as a baby, and I've been riding, having lessons and competing ever since). What I was able to learn from Lynn in 9 days about horse psychology, Monty's concepts and techniques, and horse training was the most beneficial information I have ever been priveleged to learn. Gaining the trust and respect of the horses through join-up is a truly wonderful experience.
I took my 9 year old thoroughbred, Charlie, but also worked with a number of other horses at various stages in their training which really helped to build my skills, and having Lynn their to help with each step was invaluable. I had got into some bad habits with my long-lining prior to attending the course which I wasn't even aware of, and seeing Lynn long-line my horse for the first time and my horse respond totally different with her using the correct procedures was amazing. Of course, he responded to me as well once I learnt from Lynn what I needed to do differently!
The format of the course was great too, and I learnt a lot from the theory side of things which really helped when actually working with the horses.
So again, I recommend Lynn Mitchell highly for those of you in Australia or New Zealand. Do what you can to book in for her course in September! She only takes a maximum number of 8 students, so I would recommend getting in contact with her as soon as possible.
One of the greatest experiences of my life! Thank you Lynn.
Regards
Ruth
Lynn also does private courses. She isn't having any in Vic this year but I've booked in with her for a private weekend join up course. Will be interesting to see what happens :) can't wait
