​Welcome to OKSNHC

We are a barefoot trimming hoof care school in Kelowna BC Canada. We offer online theory and education based natural hoof trimming courses as well as hands on training courses throughout the year at our campus.​

​We offer courses and workshops that encompass everything from classroom knowledge on anatomy and function to hands on guided trimming on our school horses. If you just want to learn to trim your own horses or want to pursue a career in hoof care, we have a course for everyone and every skill level. Our 6 Day Hands On Trimming Course will give you the skills needed to confidently assess and evaluate a horse's hoof care needs and includes follow up consultations and continued learning.
​
Our newest online course, Understanding Laminitis and Founder is now available!

​​​This 3 module course is designed as an add on course to our original Online Hoof Anatomy, Theory and Barefoot Trimming Course. It explores in depth the pathology of Laminitis and Founder, the differences between the two and the rehab process.

​​Virtual Trimming Coaching!

Learn from the comfort of your own barn, while trimming your own horse. These lessons are intended for individuals that are already trimming but just want to make sure they are on the right track, or those dealing with difficult cases that need more direction.
