Hey, I’m in print, or at least my photograph of Sean Coleman and Tilly is! Both of them smiling ear to ear, Tilly swimming with Sean on her back and even the bits above the water getting wet in the rain! It was one of the images I took whilst dodging the rain drops photographing Sean’s New Forest Trail Riding Course in July. It wasn’t until I read the article inside about Sean, that I realised just what an accomplished trainer he is. Not only is he a 3*Parelli professional but he is also a AQHA Senior Ranch Riding European Championship medal winner and on the path to developing bridle horses in the true California Style Vaquero tradition. l must confess I don’t know much about bridle horses, but what I admire about the way Sean trains his students and horses is that as an equine behaviourist he helps his students understand why horses do what they do and how to effect it. This he does by sharing his vast knowledge and compassion for these amazing animals. The article goes on to explain that he combines his passion for western performance and bridle horses with natural horsemanship and dressage working with riders of all levels and across all disciplines. If you are interested in finding out more about Sean’s purpose based horsemanship, you can find him on facebook: Sean Coleman- Horseman@colemansavvycentre… And it goes without saying, just get in touch with me if you would like me to capture your own special moments on my camera.
