About Us 

Natural Horsemanship Training offered at our Texas Ranch in Washington Texas

 

TC Ranch is located in an optimum and distinctive area of Texas. We are in the “Birth Place of Texas”, 15 miles east of Brenham with excellent connections to Houston (70 miles), San Antonio (140 miles), Austin (88 miles), and Dallas-Forth-Worth (210 miles). TC Ranch is home to the Vendrell Family:  Juan Antonio, TC Ranch Ventures imageCarmen, and their children Travis and Cody.

We are proud to share the lifestyle and traditions of the “Old West” with folks from across the country and around the world. Making our Texas ranch our home is a dream come true for us. We have always been very much horse folks and we love to keep to the cowboy tradition and ways. We open our home to anyone wanting to experience an enjoyable cultural and historical Texas vacation thru natural horsemanship concepts.

In addition, we have the best natural horse trainers on staff to help you to develop and improve your riding skills. Alfonso Aguilar is, without a doubt, one of the pioneers of natural horsemanship training, a technique based on no confrontation. In 1988 he began working on a California ranch with Pat Parelli and at that time he also met Tom and Bill Dorrance and Ray Hunt. Since 1990 Alfonso has offered courses in the United States, Europe, Mexico, and Australia. In 1993 Alfonso married Karin, a Swiss native and an experienced dressage rider who also worked at the Parelli’s ranch as a horse instructor. She has been conducting horsemanship clinics in USA, Europe, and Mexico as well. Karin Aguilar is also a qualified and a very important member of our team.
