Whether you are new to Jonathan's program, or a returning student, this fun all-levels clinic will keep you and your horse on your toes thinking ahead!
Designed for confident riders on their best horse, this clinic takes Course 1, 2 & 3 concepts and puts them to purpose with challenges, creative tasks, and perhaps a little mayhem along the way.
Put your partnership and communication skills to the test. There's no telling what Jonathan will pull out of his sleeve for this event!
CLINIC OUTLINE
- Build communication using the Primary Equine Language to get good body control.
- Learn to read your horse's behaviour and understand the psychology of the horse.
- Explore how using a purpose can bring out your horse's athletic ability without force, and build relaxation in movement along the way.
- Learn how to "stretch the elastic band" with your horse mentally and physically to create a stronger connection.
- Use creative exercises to help your horse find bend and balance for correct biomechanics and healthy movement.
- Test your teaching and learn creative ways to check if your horse truly understands your communication.
- Improve your balance and coordination as a rider and have a ton of fun along the way!
