About Pat Parelli
Born in 1954 in Livermore, Calif., Pat Parelli has become one of the most influential figures in natural horsemanship worldwide. With a career spanning more than four decades, Pat’s innovative approach to training horses has transformed the lives of both horses and their owners. His methods emphasize understanding the psychology and behavior of horses—enabling communication through natural cues rather than force or intimidation.
With more than 200,000 students and 150 Licensed Parelli Professionals teaching his Program globally, Pat Parelli’s influence has been far-reaching. His dedication to “making the world a better place for horses and the people who love them” has cemented his legacy in the equestrian community.
Pat’s expertise has earned him the respect of notable figures within the horse world, such as Olympian David O’Connor, Paralympian Lauren Barwick, and Eclipse Award-winning racehorse trainer Bobby Frankel, as well as recognition from broader communities, including a private audience with President Ronald Regan and Queen Elizabeth II.
