The Groundwork/Horsemanship Clinic will give you and your horse the opportunity to learn together with Greg.  You'll be working toward developing an understanding of how your horse learns, as well as acquiring the tools to build a solid foundation from feel.  This is the beginning of a new relationship together.  The foundation in groundwork will help to build a secure, confident, relaxed, and supple horse.   Followed by applying the groundwork to the saddle, the rider will now begin to reap the benefits from the new foundation, helping the horse to move away from the slightest amount of feel.  Once we have learned how to meet the horse's needs and to speak to the horses in their language, the horse and rider have a much greater potential of reaching goals for any discipline in harmony.  This clinic will give you the skills to stay safe and become a confident leader for the horse.  Cost is $400.*

*Options:

1. Work the first two days of groundwork only.  This is great for yearlings or horses that are too young to be ridden.  Cost is $200.  At the Eliel Ranch only.

2. Ride the last two days.  This option is available to those who have previously completed one of Greg's groundwork/horsemanship clinics.  Cost is $200.  On a space-available basis only.

Spectators are welcome ($25 per day).
