The School of Horsemanship
Do you want to learn about saddles, bits, jaquimas and other tack and how they ought to be used? Do you know the principles of riding and how to apply them to both your horse and yourself? Have you found your "seat" in the saddle? Do you know how to develop a "feel" with your horse? Can you find your horse’s point-of-balance? Do you know the difference between a jog and a trot – or a lope and a canter? Do you know how to ask your horse to pivot on the hind or back-up?
If your answer to any of the above questions is ‘No’, this may be just the clinic for you, as you will be taught and doing things no-one has ever told you about. So why not join The Diamond X Ranch for its highly popular Basic Horsemanship Clinic…?
