It’s Not About Us…It’s About You!
Clinician Cody Harrison is here to assist you and your horse through your own individual journey. Regardless of where you currently are in your journey or how far you aspire to go with your equine partner, Cody can help set you up to be successful and show you how to communicate clearly so you and your horse can truly enjoy your partnership.

Each and every horse and rider have their own path to follow in order to reach their goal. When working with Cody through clinics, lessons, training, or our Immersion Program, he will help you find the path that fits you and your horse’s needs. Your path will be unlike everyone else. Cody believes that we and our horses are all unique and we should remain as individuals.

Time frames are not important when you learn to enjoy and trust the path you are on rather than trying to rush to complete your goals. It takes time to learn how to communicate with your horse and explain what you are asking, and then give them the time they need to develop and actually learn the exercises. When you take it day by day, month by month you will be surprised at how fast the progress actually comes.

When working with Cody you will learn to truly feel what your horse is doing and how they feel in that moment. How they feel physically, energetically, and emotionally. Cody takes all of these things into consideration for both the horse and its rider.
