Inspired by Mustang Camp, a non-profit organization gentling captive wild horses for adoption, Anja and Ben opened Mustang Studio as a Santa Fe satellite location. Some of the horses rescued by Mustang Camp come to Mustang Studio for additional training and to find adoptive families, continuing their journey to a life with people.
At Mustang Studio we train horses with positive reinforcement. This creates trust, collaboration, and non-coercive human-horse communication and learning. We are grateful to our teacher, Dr. Patricia Barlow-Irick, who has gentled hundreds of rescued equines at Mustang Camp using humane, science-based methods.
