"Making Horse Sense"
Link to Deseret News article by Dave Gagon, staff writer

Excerpt from article: '``To my knowledge it was Tom Dorrance who started Resistant Free Training,'' says Knudsen. ``Tom learned from the horse itself. He watched horses in their natural habitat, observing their behavior and duplicating that as a person.'' Today, Knudsen applies what he learned from Dorrance, along with techniques picked up or developed over the years as a trainer of professional show horses.'

Knudsen's "Create a Connection" technique develops a horse's trust and willingness to be guided. Concepts from his training program, developed from over 30 years of working with horses, will be demonstrated thoroughly during the seminar.
