FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Achieve Equine Perfection with Pat Parelli at the 2015 Midwest Horse Fair!
Madison, WI, October 28, 2014 –– From a young age, Pat Parelli was obsessed with
horses. When Pat was just 13, a horseman named Freddie Ferrera recognized his natural
talent with horses and took Pat under his wing, teaching him valuable lessons on how to
be more natural with animals and nature.
Following a successful rodeo career, Pat decided that training horses would be the next
logical step. With his unique insight into animal psychology, Pat soon became one of the
best trainers around. The problem, he soon learned, was often the horses’ owners. Many
of them simply lacked the skill and understanding needed to properly handle the animals
he trained. So he found a way to help people become more savvy with horses.
Pat coined the term Natural Horsemanship to describe his approach. Since his first
seminar on March 1, 1982, Pat has presented his philosophy of “love, language, and leadership” to over one
million people, including Anthony Robbins, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Tom Selleck, and the Queen of England!
He has had over 200,000 students in 57 countries in his long-distance study program. More than 1,000 episodes
of his educational and inspirational television program have been broadcast on three continents, and his
magazine articles have been published in over a dozen different languages.
Pat Parelli also founded the American Mule Association and the Parelli Education Institute, which supports
Parelli students on their journey to becoming Parelli Professionals, with programs on Youth Horsemanship,
Therapeutic Horsemanship, Horse Welfare, and more.
Meet Pat Parelli at the 36th annual Midwest Horse Fair, April 17-19, at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison,
WI.
The Midwest Horse Fair is owned by the Wisconsin Horse Council, Inc. All proceeds from the Fair are
returned to the WHC and are used to represent and foster a unified equine industry in Wisconsin, promote the
equine leadership, education, service, and communication, and to take a proactive role in the future growth and
development of the equine industry.
