Clinics run 10am - 4.30pm and incorporate unmounted and mounted sessions.  Unmounted work is interactive within the group and Joanne uses a huge range of exercises to emphasise balance awareness and what the horse 'feels/understands' from your riding.

Groundwork Clinics

Joanne offers a great range of groundwork clinics for you and your horse.   These are listed here;

Confidence/Spook busting Clinic - designed to help you and your horse form a great leader-follower relationship to help overcome lack of confidence/spooking during those nervous moments.

Handling & Leading Clinic - this clinic helps you to train your horse and build a relationship that relies on the use of your body language and skills rather than force & gadgets.  Wouldn't it be great to lead your horse and have him stop beside you when you stop, back up nicely when you ask him to, not barge, drag you to the field, pull for grass or drag behind you on the leadrope, all of this is covered in this clinic. (*this is also a super clinic for those people who wish to train their horse for the in-hand show-ring)

Lets Play Pony Clinic - designed especially for the young equestrian under 13 years, this super clinic teaches children how their pony 'thinks and learns' and why he often does things that we don't expect or want him to do.  During this fun-filled clinic children learn about horse behaviour and how to correctly handle, lead and communicate with their pony in order to 'stay safe' and train him.  Our Pony 'Pudding' will often make an appearance during this clinic. *All children must be supervised by an adult during this clinic when handling ponies.
