Flying lead change clinic this coming Sunday 2 June
I only have 10 places and extend the invitation out to the English riding fraternity
It doesn’t matter if your horse can’t do lead changes because l will be going into a lot of detail on the lead up exercises needed to create the Flying lead change

Those horses that can do lead changes might have problems such as Horse changing in front and not behind throwing their head up when they do the lead change and racing off after the change .

I will be addressing all of these problems in detail throughout the clinic

We will start at 10 am and finish at 3 pm. The cost is $100 for the day.

The video shows some of the detail of changing a horse in an out of a circle. Hope you enjoy it 

Fence sitters are welcome to attend for $20 per person you’ll need to bring your own chair though

This is a drill came to me many years ago after the frustration of not getting a nice rollback
Ironically, the rollback becomes better after leaving it and not during the turn

Please give it a go and I’ll be interested in any feedback

Hope it’s beneficial

This is how we start a clinic in Mackay, where it’s way too muggy. I think I look pretty good until I was told differently and I had to get professional.

Thanks to leigh and paul morcom for hosting my clinic at “Black Horse lodge Equestrian Centre” yesterday

We started of working on the basic departure for a lope or canter trying to achieve a 10/10 for this manoeuvre

As I was saying in the clinic it may take up to 40/50/60 or 70 steps of setting our horse up to get that ONE stride that gives us our departure

The quality of our departure depends entirely on how we get there, and that relates to any sort of manoeuvre we are doing on our horses regardles
of what discipline
