Join us for our Halloween themed edition of our flagship program, Horsemanship Over Obstacles! In addition to all the great content of our standard clinic, the Halloween edition includes preparing for, and showing off your best equine costumes!Whether you are new to the world of obstacles, struggling with them, or are already hooked, you will benefit from the increased trust and confidence that working obstacles using our Four Pillars of Horsemanship.
This is our Introductory Obstacle Clinic appropriate for absolutely everyone (age 13+ please). We start by introducing you to the Four Pillars of Horsemanship: Speed, Direction, Body, and Emotional Control, cover how to influence those pillars, then use all that knowledge and apply it to navigating the four categories of obstacles, 'On, Over, Under, Through', "Get Past Scary', 'Interaction', and "Desensitization'. We start on the ground learning the skills that will allow us to tackle any obstacle safely, move on to teaching your horse what to do when they are afraid, and progress from there.
This clinic is suitable for both in-hand and in-saddle participation. In other words, you do not need to be able to ride to benefit from this clinic! In fact, you will often see our yearlings being used as demo horses. This clinic is a prerequisite if you wish to attend Obstacles Unleashed. Past participants tell us that this clinic is TRANSFORMATIVE and many choose to join us time and time again and again because, as with all our clinics, it is always about you, your horse, and where you are in your journey. We customize exercises, and the obstacles available at a clinic for that clinic's unique set of participants.
All disciplines and all levels (age 13+) are welcome! Young horses welcome! Well behaved stallions welcome! Limited to just 8 participants to ensure you get plenty of 1:1 instruction and support.
Clinic Length: 2 days - 9:00am - 5:00pm each day with a hosted dinner on Saturday night.
