Shawna Karrasch at Unexpected Farm

Shawna began her training career far outside the equestrian world, working with large marine mammals. When introduced to the world of top equestrian competition, Shawna saw immediately how reward-based training could be used to engage the horse’s willingness in equestrian pursuits. A number of years ago, top trainer John Madden was so impressed with Shawna’s early results that the world-renowned training facility at the Madden farm became the testing ground for adapting Positive Reinforcement Training for horses.

Participants must attend both days.
