Nickers for Clickers Training Academy Presents:

Wonder Whinnies Saturday classes, new and improved!

Wonder Whinnies is back! With an assist from the fantastic EquiScholars program, we’ll be teaching kids all about horses and how to understand them in the coming months. EquiScholars’ mission is to help shape today’s young horse lovers into the future stewards of all domesticated horses. They advocate for a horse’s needs and welfare, thinking outside the box, and being a protector. Their values strongly align with my own, including that we want to aim higher, and spread awareness of the horse’s needs and welfare in positive, creative ways. Together we’ll guide learners toward having an open mind, a big heart, and the courage to be a voice for change in the horse world.
