DANIEL STEWART Pressure Proof Riding Clinic

A wonderfully challenging and empowering riding clinic designed to increase confidence, courage and concentration by decreasing fears, failures and frustrations; doubt, distractions and dwelling on mistakes.

***PLEASE READ CAREFULLY REGARDING HORSES
Because of the challenging nature of the clinic it’s very important that all horses be willing, well-behaved, and able to complete a full course of 6 to 8 fences - or a full dressage test - without stopping. Horses who have a tendency to rush, run-out, refuse fences, be barn-sour, or are otherwise unable to complete a course without stopping (or make their riders feel fearful) are not appropriate for my clinic.

This clinic is designed to teach riders to be positive and focused under schooling or showing pressure,​ i​.e. recovering after mistakes, never quitting, and avoiding distractions. It is NOT designed to teach riders how to solve things like rushing or refusing horses, or how to overcome the fear of a horse who makes them nervous or fearful. Riders who attempt to ride with horses like this usually end up feeling very disappointed in the clinic and frustrated. It also delays the entire clinic for all other riders.
***NO EXCEPTIONS

This is a 1 Day Clinic, however you may sign up for both days.
