In this clinic we will spend time focusing on setting goals for the summer, each participant will make their own vision board to take home and keep as a reminder of their
summer/year long goals. In the saddle we will do warm ups, techniques/styles, and introduce new exercises and pattern work to help each participant in each of these speed
events. On the last day we will review events and end the clinic with a fun, friendly timed event competition. This clinic is open to all ages of riders, but they must be
confident in their riding skills (walk, trot and lope/canter independently) and they should own their own horse/lease a horse, however there will also be a limited number
of lessons horses available for students with CRE instructor approval. Clinic participants receive a hat for clinic participation and take home journal.

Have you ever wondered how you could help your horse be a better athlete? Would you like to ride with more ease and feel like you are one with your horse?
These are questions many of us strive to answer. Often, the underlying cause of discord between horse and rider is the lack of spatial awareness and "centeredness"
of both horse and rider. Learning to evaluate the asymmetries of both horse and rider can be a game changer for both. Once we understand the strengths and weaknesses
of our horses, we can begin an intelligent approach to helping them improve. Once we understand our own asymmetries, we can improve our posture and alignment both on
and off the horse. In our discussion together, we will look at both horses and riders and discuss simple solutions for improving the posture in both. The approach is
simple and uncomplicated and applies to horses and riders in any discipline. The clinic will include time spent on basic Cowboy Dressage maneuvers, balance, straightness,
gaits and timing/footfall.
2024 Dates TBD
