Clinton’s Dirt-Road Training Series

1105_01-1

The November No Worries Club exclusive features the first training session in a multi-part series in which Clinton throws it back to the days when he was a young trainer, starting horses in Australia. Working with Professional Clinicians Kristin Hamacher, Diego Gaona and Jeff Davis, Clinton explains how he used just a roundpen and the dirt roads around his barn to train horses. In the series, the clinicians work with horses at various stages of training to provide an in-depth look at how Clinton’s program worked and how you can incorporate the exercises with your personal horses.

In the first lesson, Kristin introduces us to Patron, a colt that’s had just two rides. The plan is to give Patron his third ride by starting in the roundpen and then taking him out on a dirt road. In part one of the lesson, Kristin focuses on groundwork exercises to get Patron using the thinking side of his brain and tuned in to her.
