In any discipline, to be great you must first master the fundamentals.

This course combines Course 1 & 2 topics, and has helped both beginners and high level riders fine tune their communication, raise their connection and advance their horsemanship.

By far the most important course you will take, and one to review throughout your horsemanship journey!

COURSE OUTLINE

Learn to apply the Jonathan Field Horsemanship Training Scale™ with Path, Speed, Bend & Balance.
Learn the riding/exercise circle and the 3 steps to cycle through.
Discover how to "stretch the elastic band", both physically and emotionally.
Find relaxation in movement with the "active neutral sweet spot".
Learn a circle program under saddle to develop a comfortable canter through bend & balance.
Begin leg yielding and learn how it builds to other maneuvers.
Improve your lead departures and build a foundation for lead changes.

✴ Each clinic has a different dynamic of people and horses. Some lessons may be focused on more than others, including some not mentioned here. If one of these goals is important to you, please mention so at the beginning of the clinic.
