NO videotaping is permitted during any part of the clinic. This includes the use of any type of recording device, including cell phones.
Still photos are allowed.
NO SMOKING is permitted on the ranch! This includes no smoking in your vehicle, barns, porches, etc. If you need a smoke break, please leave the ranch to smoke. We appreciate your cooperation!
NO DOGS are permitted on the ranch.
The course requires a horse that you are comfortable riding at a walk, trot and lope on a loose rein with a good foundation.
At times, you will be riding outside the arena, so you need to be comfortable riding in these situations.
Green Broke horses or Studs are not suitable for this type of clinic.
This is a group clinic and your horse needs to be reasonable and manageable. Individual assistance will be given as needed and up to a certain amount without interfering with the progression of the group session.
The number of participant spots are limited so each rider can expect to get individual feedback throughout the clinic, as well as benefit from the feedback Chris will give others. You are expected to be a secure and confident rider and you are also expected to be able to enjoy riding for several hours at a time. If you are not at this level then we recommend auditing the clinic.
You will need to schedule your arrival at the host facility prior to arrival.
The Horsemanship Clinics are progressive. The knowledge and skills learned will build each day and the techniques and methods taught are fundamentals of Chris Cox’s program. These are practical and effective techniques that you can use every day to communicate with your horse.
To be prepared you may want to view Chris’s DVD Groundwork in Preparation for Riding and or Correct Riding for Beginners to Advance DVD before attending your horsemanship clinic. This program will assist you with the terminology and what will be expected from Chris and his qualified instructors.
Come prepared and ready to learn with an open mind. Please inform us of any physical problems or disabilities that will hinder you and your horses’ ability, prior to attending the clinic.
