CHARM: FROM MY HANDS TO YOURS
$38.00 USD
Charmed Books
This Charmed Book depicts "'From My Hands to Yours" by Monty Roberts, and features a mini replication of the third edition dust jacket. Inside, the quote reads "Create a path, and watch him learn to partner with our kind. Be fair, and his trust you’ll earn be gentle, and a friend you’ll find."
Each charm is hand crafted using materials made in the USA. They are made from sturdy brass, texturized paper to replicate early book bindings, and weather-proofed images. They measure 1 inch long and 5/8 inches high, and are perfect as pendants or additions to charm bracelets.
How do I care for my charm?
- The best way to care for your charm is to keep it enclosed in a jewelry box or the box it comes in when not in use.
- Give it a wipe down every so often with a soft cloth to remove any body oils that may build up. A soft jewelry polishing cloth can brighten the brass as well.
Please note, the charms are weatherproof, but not waterproof. They are made of canvas paper, and though sprayed with a coating to protect it from sun, rain, and general wear, won't survive a shower or a swim. They're more of an artistic piece of jewelry than than the type of jewelry you never take off. :)

COURSES: GENTLING WILD HORSES: 10 DAYS
$1,500.00 USD
This course will give students the opportunity to use Monty's non-violent methods with ‘untouched’ horses. Students will observe and have 'hands-on' lessons according to their levels of skill. They will work in the unique facility, the 'IFA Untouched Gentling Pen,' which is designed for the humane treatment of wild horses, and the safety of horse and handler.
Be part of the experience of horse’s first touch by human hand and of the process, which allows them to be haltered, led, groomed and have their feet picked up. It is a fantastic way to learn more about the nature of the horse, as 'untouched' horses are a very good 'mirror' to learn more about oneself as well. This course is open for everyone, but 'hands-on' sessions will be limited to the skill set of each individual.
