Doing the Work: Kathleen Beckham on lifelong horsemanship study

Renowned horsewoman Kathleen Beckham has spent decades in pursuit of horsemanship excellence. A lifelong student of the horse, Kathleen shares her knowledge via her blog, FB study group as well as ongoing lessons, clinics and coaching sessions. I’ve followed Kathleen for years on FB — and have found her blog posts to be incredibly helpful and insightful. What is remarkable about Kathleen is her dedication to personal growth and ongoing learning in her own work. As a talented young professional trainer, Kathleen’s world was upended by a debilitating stroke at age 28. Undeterred, Kathleen steadily climbed out of a long rehab and returned to her work in the horse world. Since then, she has continued to deepen her skills (and stretch herself beyond her comfort zone). From traveling clinician to riding for the public to developing colts into safe riding horses — and then writing about each step of her journey in wonderful detail — Kathleen truly is always thinking about horses. For more information on Kathleen and her work, please visit her social media and blog updates at her FB page (https://www.facebook.com/greyhorsellc), her blog website (https://greyhorsellc.wordpress.com/ ) and her FB group ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/179599725727385) At Horse Wise, I teach people tools so that they can learn how to coach themselves and their horses to progress together as a team. It’s a fun process that shows you how build a good partnership with your horse (in a practical, straightforward way).
