Ah Ha!
We are very impressed with the growth in horsemanship skills that we have seen in our clinic attendees. We learn as much from each person’s “ah ha!” moments as they do, and we love to see that light bulb go on. The desire to learn and improve is strong in the air, and that attitude makes it a real joy to instruct. We appreciate each participant’s willingness to connect with each other and with us as instructors to make our clinics such a rewarding experience. As trainers and instructors, we would like to share some of these ah ha! moments as examples of what can be accomplished during our clinics and lessons.
