Stage 3/4 Clinic  (9am-4.30pm)

This clinic is open to those who have passed their Stage 2 assessment.

Stages 3 + 4 are where the magic of horsemanship starts. Can you imagine knowing the secrets of control without force, of communication without ropes? Learn to tell the critical difference between lack of understanding or confidence vs. disrespect and the different ways to deal with each. Learn about impulsion and how to encourage positive reflexes
both on the ground and in the saddle.
