Some comments about Gwenyth & PENZANCE Online Equine Courses:

"I have to tell you that I signed up wanting you to give me fish to eat, and you've taught me how to fish, instead!"
--Eve, AZ

I find that Gwen is an excellent teacher. She doesn't shove things down your throat or is critical in her delivery. She is kind and gentle and respects us as much as she respects the horse. She has her students leaning forward in their chairs. She'll throw out a tidbit and encourage you to come forward in your learning your ownself and when you do, its like the sunshine suddenly came out....you figured it out for yourself, thus transitioned yourself further in your thinking. When she posts something, it doesn't matter what its about, I can't get this computer to her words fast enough, then I read her reply, then I read it again to give myself a good start in my new leap forward in my own transitioning. I've learned to listen very carefully to Gwen. She talks softly, but she doesn't carry a big stick...she just talks softly and if you didn't listen properly, then you can take that big stick to yourself! Yup, I wish all teachers were more like Gwen! --MissyClare, CA

Gwenyth has such warmth towards the horse whilst maintaining safety of horse and handler. Having her input from years of experience with a variety of horses is invaluable as her understanding and communication skills, (with both horses and people) are such a priviledge to be able to share. I love Gwenyths perspective and explanations. --Paula, UK
-----------------------------------------------------------
I am SO impressed with Gwen's classes. I have learned so much in such a little time! I want to glean as much as I can, as Gwen is very knowledgeable about her subjects and is so down to earth. THEY WORK!!
-- Crystal, OK

"Writing that book was so hard. I can't believe it is finally done. ... I always say Gwenyth Santagate is how I got started. Your wisdom slowed me down and allowed me to get rid of my bad habits. The support I was given by you made the real difference and allowed me to look at the horse differently so I could find a New World that I never knew before. So I Thank You. --Leslie Pavlich, Author of "Clicker Training: Colt Starting the Natural Horse"
