Masterclass: Calm, Willing Hoof Handling Made Simple

Imagine standing beside your horse while they calmly pick up each hoof with just the touch of your hand—no halter pulling, no resistance, no stress for you or your farrier. Picture your horse standing quietly and willingly during hoof cleaning or trimming, creating safer, more positive experiences for everyone.

This masterclass is designed to help you understand why horses resist hoof handling and give you the practical knowledge to prevent or overcome these challenges. By learning to see hoof care through the eyes of a trainer, trimmer, and massage therapist, you’ll discover how to create a cooperative, relaxed, and ethical approach to hoof handling—without force.
