  • Epona Equestrian Center 4228 Springhill Community Rd. Belgrade, MT 598714 (map)

If you already have driving experience or have participated in one of my clinics in the past, you will enjoy this clinic as it takes you to the next level of your driving skills.

Bring your own horse and cart or use one of our experienced driving horses.

This one-day clinic will cover a lot of topics:

  • A review of harnessing, function of the harness and proper adjustment, safety when hitching, adjustment of horse and cart.

  • Line and whip handling and understanding communication with our horse

  • Using patterns and obstacles, we will work on driving with focus and precision.

  • How loss of forward motion and loosing connection through the lines impacts your driving.

  • The difference between “driving” your horse around a corner and “pulling” him around the corner.

  • Transitions and speed control

  • Backing and fanning

  • Hand out included

  • Small semiprivate group allows for plenty of one-on-one instructions!
