Welcome to The Plaidchat- an extension of The Plaidcast where we expand upon conversations in our sport and discuss the most recent issue of The Plaid Horse Magazine. Today, Piper speaks with author and educator, Mary Ann Simonds. Listen in and share with your friends!

• Host: Piper Klemm, publisher of The Plaid Horse
• Guest: Mary Ann Simonds is an author and educator with an international practice helping horse professionals better understand, train, and care for their equine companions. Her research on wild horse ecology, behaviors, and cultures set the foundation for challenging many of the traditional horse training paradigms. In the 1990s, Mary Ann developed a line of stress management products for Toklat Originals, including the first magnetic hoof boot and a line of flower essences and aromatherapy products for horses. She ran the Whole Horse and Equestrian Science Institute for over 25 years and has published four books and written hundreds of articles. After selling her farm in the Pacific Northwest, she now resides full-time in Wellington, Florida.
