OBSTACLE TRAIL CLINIC FOR BEGINNER AND INTERMEDIATE RIDERS
Building Skills for Competitive Obstacle Trail
This clinic will help riders become more confident, learn how to correctly maneuver a judged and timed competitive obstacle course, and learn the skills needed to improve scoring and time on the course.

This clinic is designed to help the rider with horsemanship skills and to have better communication with the horse.
This clinic will focus on obstacles you might encounter on the trail and in competition and how to correctly execute the maneuvers for some of the common obstacles including sidepassing over a log, backing between poles, opening and closing a mailbox, gates, jumps, poles/cones, or turn around/pivoting in a box.
The clinic will begin with individuals performing a timed and judged run on the obstacle trail course, followed by an evaluation, how to properly execute each obstacle, and coaching and guidance to improve in the areas specific to you and your horse.
