Learning through Auditing: Improving your Horsemanship

I recently finished offering a three-day-long Full Immersion Clinic. I've titled these clinics because we cover so many aspects of horsemanship and riding. I never have an agenda as to what we'll accomplish. Depending on the participants and what their horse's needs are, things evolve organically. These are not the sit-in-the-saddle-for-8-hours types of clinics. These are an opportunity to mentally slow down and really raise our level of awareness within/about ourselves and our horses, to better understand the conversation the horse is offering, and learn how best to work with the horse in order to get the ideal ride.
