Courses/Clinics
Sara offers 4 unique experiences for your specific needs.
The Confidence Course-
These clinics are fun, encouraging and full of laughter. New friendships are often formed. We work on building each other up and strengthening our relationship with our horse. We work together to troubleshoot problems and find solutions. All levels of riders are welcome in these clinics, and we use the current ability level of a horse and rider to determine a starting point to build from.
The Confident Colt Clinic-
When we control the horse’s feet we control the mind. This clinic focuses on moving individual body parts like the hip, ribs and shoulders. We work on our timing and feel, and practice offering up the best deal possible. There is a lot of focus on how we ask for different tasks. We focus on consistency in our approach, and allow for plenty of soak time so that their brains can process the experience.
Advanced Confidence Course-
This clinic is designed for the rider that wants to challenge themself. The focus is seeing how little we can do to get the desired response. Students will work on themselves and how they present information to their horse.There is a morning session focused on horsemanship, followed by an afternoon session practicing our horsemanship using the obstacles.
Mounted Enforcement Clinic-
This clinic teaches the basics of mounted patrol equitation, the purpose of mounted patrol, equine psychology, sensory and obstacle training, arrest techniques while horseback, parade riding, mounted patrol formation riding, search grid patterns, and search and rescue operations.
Hi my name is Mollie Davis and I am so pleased with Sara’s confidence courses. Whether it's a colt clinic or a riding clinic,he has a really soft approach with all of the horses. She knows how to read them well to help them overcome any obstacle. She explains very well to the handlers/riders of how to approach an obstacle to make the horse gain confidence with each step. She helps us understand where to be and how little or much pressure we need to give our horse so they can go over tarps/bridges/ go thru bubbles and with her soft and knowledgeable hand every person and horse in her classes always win. She does an amazing job.
