Eclectic Classroom – Horsemanship is for Everyone with Gene Armstrong

Product Description

Horsemanship is for everyone. From the first time owner, to the farrier, the veterinarian to the volunteer at a horse rescue. All horses benefit when the people who handle them in any way have a sense of what good horsemanship is and how to interact with them. In this class lifetime student of the horse and retired Cal Poly professor Gene Armstrong will guide us through the ways in which horsemanship is essential for everyone.

Gene taught more than a generation of students with equine aspirations about farrier science and horsemanship at CalPoly (California Polytechnic State University) in San Luis Obispo, California before retiring. Gene, now 81-years old, considers himself a student of the horse and even with his lifetime of experience continues to add to his knowledge. Gene is truly an inspiration and a wealth of knowledge; come prepared to learn and have fun.
