    Welcome to Country Tough with Brandy Von Holten. Lee Hart is the longest returning clinician at our facility (Von Holten Ranch in Mora, MO). Lee has had one to two clinics a year since we opened our facility to the public. Yes, Lee is a fierce competitor and horse trainer, but that is not why we keep singing his praises. Lee has a way of connecting with clinic participants that helps take them to their next level in their personal horsemanship journey. We would love for you to take a Lee Hart clinic at Von Holten Ranch and see why we keep asking him back.
