Clinician Academy In Full Swing

0521_04

Students enrolled in the 2019 Clinician Academy are in their fourth week of study at the Downunder Horsemanship Ranch in Stephenville, Texas, and are excelling at the Method. Working with two of their personal horses, the students attend two training sessions (9 a.m. – 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. – 5 p.m.) per day, five days a week. During the training sessions, students learn to refine their application of the Fundamentals level of the Method and better understand how to earn respect and build partnerships with horses.

Students are tested over their knowledge of the Method by taking a written test and a practical test. While the students have already taken their first written exam, in the second week of June, they’ll be tested over their ability to do every groundwork and riding exercise from the Fundamentals level.

Get all the details about the Academy on our website.
