This clinic will consist
of a series of exercises focused on the following topics: Giving and
requiring respect, trusting and being trustworthy, the role confidence
plays in your horsemanship, how to acquire confidence, being an effective
leader, setting firm and consistent boundaries and communicating clearly.
The exercises will demonstrate how to effectively establish each principle
between a horse and rider. By learning to develop these principles with
your horse and incorporating them into your horsemanship program, you are
likely to find you will have the ability to carry the very same principles
with you into other aspects of your life and relationships.
