• The course requires a horse that you are comfortable riding at a walk, trot and canter on a loose rein.
• At times, you will be riding outside the arena so you need to be comfortable riding in these situations. Note: Green Broke horses or stallions are not suitable for this type of clinic.
This is a group clinic and your horse needs to be reasonable manageable. Individual assistance will be given as needed and up to a certain amount without interfering with the progression of the group session. • The number of participant spots are limited so each rider can expect to get individual feedback throughout the clinic, as well as benefit from the feedback Chris will give others. You are a secure and confident rider and you also enjoy riding for several hours at a time. If you are not at this level then we recommend auditing the clinic. • If you are renting a ranch clinic horse – saddle, tack, stall, feed and hay are included. You are responsible for the care and maintenance of your rental horse and the maintenance of its stall. Buckets, shovels, etc. are provided. • You will need to arrive at the ranch on between 2 pm and 6 pm – the day before the clinic begins. The Horsemanship Clinics are progressive. The knowledge and skills learned will build each day and the techniques and methods taught are fundamentals of Chris Cox’s program. These are practical and effective techniques which you can use every day to communicate with your horse. To be prepared you may want to view Chris’s DVD Groundwork in Preparation for Riding & Correct Riding before attending your horsemanship clinic. This program will assist you with the terminology and what will be expected from Chris and his qualified instructors. Come prepared and ready to learn with an open mind. Please inform us on any physical problems or disabilities that will hinder you and your horses’ ability, prior to attending the clinic
