Savannah Clinic - Spring 2003

We had a wonderful clinic in Savannah this spring.  The weather was great and the horses and riders were wonderful to work with.  All of the riders had ridden with Del before, so she was able to work with them on some continuation skills including some seat work and individual work as well as some advancing ground work.

The riders worked in pairs in the round pen to receive individualized attention.

Riding this gait is not fun for the rider, so we go back to basic ground behavior and solve the problems that might be causing this before we go back to riding.

Del and her mare Ellie worked with this horse so that he could understand better what was expected of him.

Then he and his owner went on to do some great riding for the rest of the weekend without incident.

Sunday morning was spent in the arena.  
The group worked on some of the ground work.

And even working on overcoming obstacles.

After a long weekend of working with horses and people, Del ’s horse, Ellie decided to take Sunday afternoon and do a little snoozing before the long trip home.  Deborah Thorne’s horse, Spring is taking a break, too.  It was a truly great weekend for all.   Horses and riders had a great time and made a lot of progress.  We look forward to another clinic in Savannah soon.
