Introduction to In Hand and Advancing In Hand
and New: Riding in Rhythm

In clinics, people can come together to improve their relationships with their horse, learn how to improve their timing and feel, and take home a new awareness to improve their day to day lives with their horses.
Clinics offer a fun, low pressure way to learn along with other riders, expose horses to things they may not see at home in a safe, controlled environment, set up situations to improve and expand comfort zones, and to learn from watching other riders as well.
UPCOMING CLINICS

Clinic Description:
Clinics are open to all breeds and disciplines
Private and semi private lessons:
One hour long - we will work on filling holes in foundational work, addressing movement or behavior issues, and connecting classical work to your discipline of choice.
Group Sessions:
Foundation Group - suitable for green horses or people new to Amy's work: Begins in hand, developing rhythm and alignment. Discussion of range of motion for stability and mobility. Progressing to ridden exercises- how to use the seat to develop better balance and mobility for both horse and rider, figures to create relaxation and lengthening of horse's topline. Some walk trot transitions.
Advancing Group - suitable for horses who can walk, trot and canter in a group safely:Begins with more advanced exercises in hand: lateral work, range of motion exercises. Progresses to ridden work, including bending and suppling exercises, lateral work, and more in depth discussion of the seat and transitions.
Gear requirements:
Come in whatever saddle fits you and your horse comfortably. Bring a halter and lead, or cavesson and line if preferred. A flag or in hand (dressage) whip is helpful.
Please no leverage bits or leverage hackamores - this work is suited best to direct reining gear. Hackamores ok.
