We conduct riding and theory horsemanship clinics that cover topics such as horse psychology; body language; trust and unity; partnership; developing feel, balance and self-carriage; bitless riding and more. Clinic participants are also invited to put forward their own areas of interest or concern, such as trailer loading, bucking, rearing, handling feet or fear of riding that we address in the clinic context. Regardless of whether you are new to horses or experienced, whether you currently own a horse or not, these clinics emphasise the importance of understanding between you and your horse in order to form a lifelong partnership based on trust and non-violence. For your convenience, we can also hold private clinics, anywhere in the country, by arrangement. Clinic dates are limited because of Carlos’ training commitments. Horsemanship clinic participant numbers are also limited to ensure maximum benefit for all (fence sitters are always welcome). Book early to guarantee a place. "If you want unity with your horse, learn to ride and handle him the way he wants to be ridden and handled."
