Have you wanted to host a clinic at your barn?
This year, we are opening our clinic schedule up to offer clinics at your barn! Below find information on the clinics we are available to offer. If there is another topic you're interested in, we're happy to chat about tailoring a clinic to your needs!
Fire Evacuation Clinic
No one ever wants to have to evacuate their property, but unfortunately fire season is becoming worse in Colorado and a successful and safe evacuation requires early planning, preparation, and practice.
Our team has years of experience in planning for and handling evacuations. In this clinic, we’ll walk you through the process of finding and communicating with resources to help you evacuate, how to plan an evacuation from your property and special things to consider in different scenarios, as well as do a trailer loading demonstration and talk about trailer safety and inspections.
Dressage Show Prep Clinic
Are you thinking about showing but aren’t sure where to start? We'll everything you need to know to confidently go to your first dressage show.
This clinic is designed to help riders feel prepared, organized, and confident before your next show. Whether it’s your first show or you just want to feel more organized, we’ll walk you through the entire process.
Lunging for Safety and Connection
I get to shows and see the lunging warm-up ring full of bucking, pulling, and wild behavior. Lunging shouldn’t be about winding your horse up even more.
I want to show you my techniques for using lunging to help get your horse’s brain with you, more focused and attentive, instead of more reactive and stressed. The goal is to use lunging as a tool for safety, communication, and getting your horse tuned in to you before you get on. I will give riders the tools and skills they need to feel safe and confident lunging their horse. 🐎
Managing a Spooky Horse at a Show
Do you struggle at shows when your horse spooks during your test or won’t even go in the ring?
We will set up a “ride a test” scenario — spooky style. This will simulate the kinds of things that can happen at shows so riders can practice handling them in a supportive environment. We’ll talk about how to manage your test, when it’s appropriate to school, and when it’s better to avoid an issue and keep riding your test.
The goal is to help riders stay confident, make smart decisions in the moment, and keep their test together even when things don’t go perfectly. 🐎
Feel & Timing Clinic
Do you…
• Struggle to get your horse to respond the way you thought you asked?
• Wonder if the way you move or use your aids is unbalancing your horse?
• Want to improve your communication—on the ground or in the saddle—without frustrating your horse or yourself?
I created this unique, hands-on experience to help you feel what your horse feels. No horse is required—you’ll be up, moving, and doing exercises that reveal how timing, pressure, and energy really work.
We’ll start with a 30-minute demo and discussion, then jump into interactive exercises that will change the way you work with your horse forever.
*This clinic can be turned into a 3 part series.
