These horsemen come from all walks of life and backgrounds, but they share one common trait: a deep commitment to improving the lives of horses and their owners through the Method. After completing the rigorous, hands-on seven-week training program, they have proven they have the dedication, skill and leadership to represent Downunder Horsemanship.
Each of our new Method Ambassadors has a personal story that led them to Downunder Horsemanship and a unique approach to connecting with horse owners. They’re not only equipped with the knowledge and tools to train safe, respectful horses in the Fundamentals level of the Method – they’re passionate about helping others gain confidence, learn horsemanship and achieve results.
We’re proud to now make their services and training programs available to the public. Whether you’re looking to have your horse trained or for personalized instruction in the Fundamentals level of the Method or need just a tune-up, our Ambassadors are ready to help. You’ll find their official webpages and individual videos now live on the certifiedclinician.com website.
There’s no better time to get inspired by their journeys, hear what led them to pursue a career in horsemanship and connect with them. With the Method as their foundation and a passion for teaching, these Ambassadors are here to support horse owners just like you.
