Stage 1 Clinic (9am-4.30pm)
This clinic is where ‘horse savvy’ begins, creating a positive balance of trust and respect, eliminating common problems and safety issues. Students will begin to develop and achieve an understanding of horse psychology and have a chance to put them to practice with expert hands-on help.
Advanced Workshop Clinic (9am-4.30pm)
This clinic is open to those who have recently participated in a Stage 1 clinic and are comfortable riding in a halter. Focus will be on individual problems the rider is having at the stage he/she is at with their horse. This clinic is intended to help you continue your horsemanship through Glenn’s stages program. Glenn will try to accommodate riders at their various levels of learning and include exercises that benefit everyone and their horse. Ideally Monday, May 6th only for Stage 2 and above.
