Schedule of Events

Note: lessons and training are ongoing. Contact Jessee for more information or to register for clinics.

Please note: Jessee is not a certified Parelli instructor, but has intensively studied PNH since the mid-1990s. She can easily coach you to be successful in that program, and videotape and pass your Levels assessments. Jessee can also teach you the Universal Horsemanship program - she was a former instructor for Dennis Reis's program.
