Meet the 2020 Clinician Academy Students: Kenneth Trahan

0630_04

Florida horseman Kenneth Trahan will be heading to the Downunder Horsemanship Ranch in Stephenville, Texas, at the end of September to attend this year’s Clinician Academy. Kenneth has participated in multiple clinics and private lessons with Clinton and Professional Clinicians Jeff Davis and Kristin Hamacher. He shares why he’s so passionate about the Method and why he made the decision to attend the Academy.

Why do you believe in the Method?
The Method changed me. It opened my mind in so many ways, and it’s so easy to understand. It’s a curriculum based on fundamentals, and once you have the foundation built properly, the sky is the limit! Even if you lack perfect feel and timing, you’ll still have some measure of success.

What made you decide to attend the Academy?
I finally figured out what I want to be when I grow up and the Method is the best way to get there. I’ve found my passion, and in pursuit of that, I want information … I believe what Clinton says, “Frustration begins where knowledge ends.” I want to be submerged in it … and it’s all or nothing for me!

We can’t wait to welcome Kenneth back to the ranch in September as he starts his journey toward becoming a Method Ambassador! Learn more about the Clinician Academy on our website.
