- Mark Rashid
(pronounced RASH-id) is an internationally acclaimed
horse trainer known for his ability to understand
the horse’s point of view and solve difficult
problems with communication rather than force. He
began working with horses at age ten, when he met
the “old man,” who taught him to work with
horses, not against them, and to listen to what the
horse is trying to say. Mark’s clinics center on
one-on-one work with horse and rider and are
immensely popular with people around the world.
|
- When Mark decided to
study the martial art of aikido as a way to improve
his horsemanship, he brought the same quiet
determination to it that he exhibits in his work
with horses. After years of practice, he earned a
black belt in Yoshinkan aikido and now teaches the
“way of harmony” in the local dojo.
|
- Mark worked full time
on ranches for many years gathering herds, managing
stock, and training horses. When time permits, he
still enjoys working on ranches near his home in
Estes Park, Colorado.
|
- Mark has been a guest
on NPR’s The Horse Show and was featured on
the Nature series on PBS. He is the author of
six books - Considering the Horse, A Good
Horse is Never a Bad Color, Horses Never Lie,
Life Lessons from a Ranch Horse, Horsemanship
Through Life, and his latest Big
Horses, Good Dogs, and Straight Fences. He also
has a solo music CD Song of the Prairie and
enjoys singing and playing guitar with a local band
The Elktones.
