Claudia and Horse

Instructor


Claudia Franks


I have been around horses for 10 years, I got my first horse without knowing what was involved and I found it difficult to find useable information, there were so many conflicting ideas about what should and shouldn't be with horses, ranging from their diet through to how to put a saddle on.


I decided to research as much as possible and constantly being interested about how the smallest thing can change the horse, even down to just walking into the paddock, they are complex animals and I am still fascinated by them.


I completed my barefoot trimming course with Australian Certified Equine Hoofcare Practitioner (ACEHP) in 2018 and then was one of the first people to complete the TAFE course Certificate III in Hoofcare. In these 2 courses I learnt about communication with horses, diet, environment, movement and many other aspects of horses and how they operate.


I am currently studying Equine Massage and Equine Kinesiology Taping to further my knowledge of equines.
