Horse Whisperer Frank Bell - The man who has made natural
horsemanship so easy to master

Living in eastern Idaho, Frank

Bell is a master trainer who
specializes in techniques for
natural horsemanship, or "horse
whispering". His horse training
techniques embrace gentle
handling with advanced
communication and have a
huge emphasis on safety for
both the rider and horse. 

For the past 15 years Frank
Bell has been teaching others
across the globe his ‘Gentle
Solutions’ techniques. These
techniques have evolved over
the past two decades into
some of the most effective,
yet easy-to-use methods for
natural horsemanship training.

As a child a twist of fate
blessed Frank Bell with the gift
to befriend even the fiercest
canines. As an adult, that fate
(and gift) again nudged Frank,
this time in the direction of the equine. From that moment forward, Frank
Bell never looked back as his career in the horse world exploded. Frank
quickly became one of the premier respected masters in the most significant
revolution in horse handling techniques to come along for hundreds of years.

The results of Frank Bell's training are showing up in riding programs and
stables throughout the world. His success in curing the most difficult
problems with horses is quite phenomenal.

Frank Bell’s ability to share his gift with riders, by giving them a distinct
starting place with all horses has brought him wide acclaim and a rapidly
growing following. Frank’s methods are being taught by his certified
partners and mastered by horse people worldwide.

Frank Bell developed his Seven Step Safety System (7-SSS) over the years
after breaking his collarbone in an accident with a horse approximately 20
years ago.  Frank has based his system on the teachings of the Plains
Indians, as well as Buck Brannaman, the renowned “Horse Whisperer” on
whom the Robert Redford movie was based. 

He was also inspired by the Dorrance brothers, the grandfathers of the
natural horsemanship movement, as we know it today. Frank Bell also
studied horse expert Linda Tellington-Jones who uses the “sense of touch”
to heal horses.   Frank Bell has a genuine interest in sharing his 7-SSS and
knowledge and will often go to great lengths to offer his services.

"Even today, after using my system on
thousands of horses, I cannot believe how
well it does work. In my clinics I watch my
students, many with poor timing, balance,
and feel. Yet still I watch horses change so
dramatically for the better, that I am
constantly amazed”. Frank Bell

Frank Bell has been featured on all major networks in the United States, in
numerous newspapers and horse magazines. He also appeared live in New
York City just before the movie The Horse Whisperer hit the theaters in
1998. A follow-up three-part series reporting on Frank's 7-Step Safety
System in   Denver Post - Horse Trainer Bucks Tradition  catapulted Frank into the
international arena by the end of last century.

"If you listen to what he teaches, you will walk away a changed person -
and always, forever, for the better!"
