Collectively with decades of experience having worked with thousands of horses and riders, Mikal and Noel share some of their conversations exploring all things horses. Mikal operates Robinson equine out of Bowie, Texas and is a horseman who develops young horses to performance horses and everything in between. Noel calls Two Jack Farm home outside of Cremona, Alberta focusing on sport horses as well as traveling extensively as a clinician. Mikal and Noel also offer joint clinics working together with any horse with four legs and any human with an open mind. Enjoy!

Life with horses and their learning process do not follow a linear path. Part of horsemanship is listening to the horse and supporting them accordingly. Having expectations on our horses can be an important element of growth however if we are too rigid in our expectations it can be detrimental for all involved.
