Building Connection and Communication
*Ground work and Riding*
This is a personal favorite of mine. It is an opportunity to spend five days immersed in a beautiful environment that is designed to help horses and students express themselves and learn, together.
Having five days allows us to craft an experience that feels less compressed than a shorter clinic format. With a little more breathing room we can allow for a deeper dive into both horsemanship and self-awareness.
This will include-
- One on one sessions with your horse.
- Group sessions for ground work and riding, as the group dictates.
- Theory sessions and discussion on topics such as -Mammalian emotional systems, creating connection, setting boundaries, healthy horse biomechanics, and more.
- Demos from Michelle and Troy, with their personal horses.
- Special opportunity for guided herd observation time with the two resident herds, followed by horse behavior discussion.
Get the best of both worlds - the benefit of a small group, along with plenty of time for individual attention.
These are very special clinics, limited to only 6 participants. We are keeping class size small to foster the best learning environment for you and your horse.
This format will include playing on the ground, riding, and theory/discussion. Some time with horses will be in a group setting, and some time will be in individual sessions.
A few auditor positions are available and require pre-registration on the website.
Cost is $750 for the clinic. A $100 non-refundable deposit will hold your spot.
Payment plan available, email Michelle to inquire.
12' x 12' covered pen stabling is an additional $15 p/night- Please bring your own water buckets and feed for your horse. Minimal shavings are provided, please feel free to bring additional bags if you would like deeper bedding.
There is ample parking for big rigs, and a limited number of electrical hookups are available for overnight camping at $20 per night. There are also many hotel options within 20 minutes in New Glarus, Mount Horeb, and Verona, WI.
Hope to see you soon!
