'STARTING BABY JAZ'

After a few short months on the market, Charles' new book 'Starting Baby Jaz' is receiving excellent reviews from publications like 'New England Horse Talk', and 'Quarter Horse News Weekly'.

Charles Wilhelm changes the lives of horses and humans. My horse, a four-year old Arabian mare, had been under the saddle for almost one month when I brought her to CWT. Barely a month later when I picked her up she had undergone remarkable changes. From an adorable but slightly bored horse, she had become an alert, interested and strong horse. In other words, she was way ahead of me. With me Charles had a tougher nut to crack: some habits picked up in the course of many years had to first be un-learned before I could even understand what he was teaching me. There's something infectious about Charles’  commitment and sense of humor that helps me to absorb the new knowledge. The premises are strikingly clean and well organized, and all the horses seem totally engaged. There is a good pace to the trainings, the lessons and the cleanups. At any time of the day one can witness Charles smack in the middle of the arena, training a horse and, with a few words and gestures, directing others. He obviously has a finger on the pulse of every detail in his stable. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and it is apparent that everybody likes to work for him. - Caroline Van Tuyll
