Which Class is Right For Me?
All of our classes have changed and been added to over the years and always will continue to. Many people have questions as to just which class is right for them - and more importantly - which is right for their horse. Below is a brief description of each of the classes. Please contact the clinic sponsor or our office regarding clinic location, prices and local accommodation suggestions.

Your Road to Success
Your road to any level of success that you choose for yourself and your horse depends on that journey being systematic and progressive. All our courses have a begining, middle & end just like a good movie or book.
Development stage 1 - Fundmentals
Development stage 2 Fun, Focus and Foundation before the formal riding
Development stage 3 - Bridging the Gap between Ground Control & Riding
Development stage 4 & beyond - Creating Something Beautiful
How long are the clinics? This year I will be holding 2-4 day clinics and they will depend on the level of experience and depth the riders are looking to study.
What does each Stage Contain?
Horses are basically motivated by feeling safe, knowing there is comfort and having some fun. Each stage will have:
1. Some theory
2. Some ground control either with your leadropes and or in the round yard
3. Some time in the Back Yard being creative and having some fun
4. Some formal riding so we dont all look like cowboys
5. Some patterns to develop balance, rhythm & consistency
Each Session will have:
1. Coffee & Tea
2.
Warm Up
3. Some laughs
4.
Learning something new
5. More laughs
6.
Cool down
Then we hit the showers, sample some food, taste some wine, drink some beer, listen to some music &
relax with a camp fire!
