Franklin is extra special. I wanted my daughter to experience some good horsemanship learning and I picked Franklin to entrust with her. My daughter, though very capable, is quite sensitive and has quite a fragile self esteem and doesn't cope well with any form of aggression. My experience of quite a few of horsemanship trainers is whilst fabulous with horses can be quite tough on people and I didn't want to risk that with Jayne. Franklin was the perfect answer as he has such a gentle approach with people as well as horses. Jayne really blossomed and went from being scared to ride her horse to trotting happily around the arena. Franklin's words of wisdom about life to Jayne have had quite an impact on Jayne and she summed it up in her words: '...mum, if more people in the world were like Franklin it would be a much nicer place to live.

I see that first clinic i ever went to of yours as a turning point in myself in both the way I am with the horses and in general life. So thank you do inspiring me to better myself and continuing to inspire me to learn and develop who I am and who I could be.

Hi Franklin, just a note to say thank you for your article on physical space & emotions in horses. Reading it lead to one of the most powerful emotional moments I've ever had with a horse. We were playing hunt the jump on line in the paddock, she was learning to jump a single barrel & when she did it I'd stop sit on the barrel & tell her how clever she was. Instead of giving her a scratch or reaching into her space I let her come to me. She nuzzled my face & neck, we breathed together, snuggled in & let each other know how much we love each other. Sounds corny but it was so powerful, so beautiful I could have cried, lasted so long & I believe it's taken our relationship to a whole new level. I've only had this horse since September & without the knowledge you shared this magic time may not have happened. Now I'm out to find out what else you know that I can use to help me be the best I can for my horses. Cheers to more magic & to the wonderful wisdom you generously share!

Trust n Horses...What a perfect title...it really is where it all starts. Your first eBook absolutely gripped my attention, I bought number 2 straight away. The dvds haven't disappointed me either.

Mini milestones today....whom I kidding....for me and my pony they are Oscar winning
