| Thank
you for your interest in hosting a
clinic. The two-day clinics provide
participants an opportunity to learn
on the ground and under saddle. The
mornings are spent experimenting through
ground exercises. This would be with
or without horses depending on the
type of clinic. The afternoons normally
consist of group riding sessions to
allow for application under saddle.
All
of these clinics offer a great opportunity
for equestrians of all levels and
styles of riding to experience the
benefits of Centered Riding and Natural
Horsemanship. They are specifically
designed to be enjoyable, educational
and safe.
Below
please find details on what's involved
in hosting a clinic. I really try
to be flexible and consider each individual's
needs. Please don't hesitate to contact
me if you have any questions or would
like to schedule a clinic.
Facility Requirements
- A
room or space large enough for up
to 15 participants, plus auditors,
to sit and move around without horses.
- A
riding area large enough for groups
of 7-8 people to ride at one time.
- Horse
accommodations for people who may
want to trailer in for the clinic.
- Optional-Lesson
horses for those that may want to
lease a horse for the afternoon
ride. Please understand that the
horses do not work hard in these
clinics. The main focus is on the
rider, therefore most of the work
is done at the walk and some trot.
Canter work is up to the discretion
of the instructor and each individual
rider.
