Ep. 52 Leslie Desmond

Adult Onset Horsemanship

Let us know how we're doing. Please understand that we can't reply or see your info.

This is a long awaited episode! Leslie is someone that I truly get a kick out of. Her mind is very intelligent and complex. She's the author of one of the best horse books ever written, "True Horsemanship Through Feel", which she lovingly refers to as "Bill's Book". Leslie does have a benefit clinic coming up very soon, (late Sept and early Oct.) in Colorado. The host has been sick and the clinic hasn't been promoted much at all, so feel free to get in touch with them and get signed up!
I have actually had 3 different interviews with Leslie over the years and each time has been plagued with tech issues. Please enjoy this latest interview that made it through editing in tact. There were some connection issues and I lost her mid sentence dozens of times, so this is heavily edited and I hope it comes across in a manner that does justice to Leslie's ideas.
