Kelly Marks probably - she practices in the UK

I have had Karen Cunningham (IH registered instructor) out to my horses twice - she is excellent - she lives in the North of England and has travelled up to Scotland to work with me and my horses - I would highly recommend her

What a tough question- I'd have to say it would be between Clinton Anderson and the Lyons (either one since they basically have same philosophy.

Monty Roberts, because he is the origional.

i think all of them would be very informative and fun, but i think i would have to go with Monty Roberts since he was the first one i heard about

Monty Roberts, Clinton Anderson or Pat Parelli. Pony Boy is a good one too.

If I could, I'd jump at the chance to attend a Clinton Anderson clinic and I'd go to a Parelli clinic IF it was Parelli himself! I also like Ray Hunt alot and he does a week long intensive clinic that eventually I'd like to participate in.

I've auditued 2 Steve Rother clinics now and I feel he does a really good job at helping people SEE and FEEL what they need to be doing. His skills for such a young man are excellent IMO.

I also would attend a Josh Lyon's clinic. Apparently he puts on an outstanding clinic from the feed back I've had of aquaintences. Another person who interests me is Leslie Desmond. Really there are HUNDREDS of Natural Horsemanship clinicians. I just regret I never got to speak with Tom or Bill Dorance in person, they kind of were grand-dads of the entire "natural horsemanship" movement and grew up only 9 hours from me! UGH! That's me always a day late and a dollar short!~ LOL

Totally Clinton Anderson first. He is very straight forward and gets great results with methods that make SENSE. And I love how he goes step by step and shows you how to deal with all problems, not just saying they might come up or them might not.

Next would be the Lyons.

I've only just taken up serious interest in NH so i guess i'd want to see Pat Parelli.
