While we have been teaching horsemanship courses and producing the very best horse trainers, we’ve been studying new methods and improving the ways in which they are taught. As a result of these changes, we are excited to bring you a suite of the world’s most comprehensive and effective horsemanship training courses. This one-of-a kind program will be among the most sought after in the world. We know you will find our courses challenging as well as fulfilling, and look forward to having you join our team of Lyons Legacy Trainers. There are three steps to building and establishing your career as a Lyons Legacy Trainer. During each step, you will be guided through a comprehensive curriculum designed to give you all the skills needed to become a great horseman.
Cost of this course is $20,000.00
One of the changes you may have noticed is our new and improved certification program. Course enrollment is limited to 3 to 5 students, for the two 2-week training sessions. Each session will be separated by a 1 to 2 week break. This will allow our trainers time to absorb all they have been working on and help to clarify those things in their own mind that they’ll need to “perfect” in the final 2 weeks of the course. This new program allows Josh to spend more quality time with each trainer. Our goal is to offer an even better environment here at our Cross Plains facility, where each trainer’s retention level will show remarked improvement. The main purpose of these changes is to improve our overall program so that you, the trainer, will reach more of your goals and retain more of the information you’ve been given. This will, ultimately, improve your business in a very significant way. And, if you are accepted and complete the entire “Lyons Legacy Master Trainer Program”, this will open up enormous opportunities to you personally.

The second level of our new training program is our accreditation course. Like the certification program, it will be run in the same manner. The session will last a total of 4 weeks. Each trainer will come for 2 weeks, have 1 to 2 weeks off to digest all they learned, and then return to fine tune all they can during the final 2 weeks before graduation. Once again, enrollment will be limited to only 3 to 5 students to ensure complete attention from Josh to each and every detail that each trainer deserves. This course will take the training to the next level of performance and will focus primarily on improving the level of finish work in both, the horse and the trainer.Topics covered include:
