Across a focused six‑hour day or stretched over an immersive three‑day block, the clinic centers on one participant and one instructor: start with a consultation to set goals, move through hands‑on horse care and groundwork, and progress into coached riding and supervised trail time so skills translate from the yard to the trail.
