Balance: The Foundation of Horsemanship and Leadership
In this clinic, we explore the practical and intangible sides of horsemanship to improve your communication and partnership with your horse.
Through equine bodywork, groundwork, and riding exercises, you will:
You’ll learn how your body, energy, and attention shape every interaction.
You’ll practice making clear requests, holding boundaries with softness, and staying present when things get uncertain.
And you’ll receive feedback in real time—from a 1,000-pound partner who doesn’t care about your résumé but will respond honestly to your presence.
The beautiful part (an added bonus, if you will!!) is that this work with horses directly transfers to our important relationships with humans.
What you get:
Support to develop a presence that's felt by horses and humans
The opportunity to claim space and hold boundaries
Practice communicating clearly and kindly
The ability to experience horse and human actions with neutrality rather than taking them personally
Horsemanship exercises that you can use with any horse
Simple time outside with curious peers and trail rides in the mountains
