Clinicians

Linda Parelli :

Born in Singapore, Linda Parelli moved to Australia with her family when she was 12, where she was first introduced to dressage. Linda hated all the mechanical devices she was told to use in order to control her horses, but grudgingly accepted this 'training' as normal. The more she observed the horse world, the more it made her heart ache.
As fate would have it, Linda was in a tack store one day, purchasing yet more 'magical' gadgets when her eyes wandered to a video. Her curiosity piqued as the cowboy executed perfect flying lead changes and beautiful slide stops and spins, presenting a picture of total harmony. It took a few moments for Linda to realize that this cowboy, Pat Parelli, was riding bridleless.

Linda signed up immediately for the course with Pat. In that very first clinic, she got immediate, positive results with Regalo, the dangerous horse who had challenged her for years. Linda went on to promote Parelli clinics in Australia, and a few years later the dressage rider and the cowboy were married. Linda Parelli is one of only four people in the world to achieve a Parelli Five Star Premier rating. She stars in all the Parelli tour presentations, commands a presence in the Parelli RFD television shows, and teaches courses at the Parelli Centers. Much of the Parelli written material and educational systems has come from Linda's passion to make Pat Parelli's teachings available to horse lovers around the world.  Linda and Pat live at the Parelli Centers in Pagosa Springs, Colorado and Ocala, Florida.
