We are pleased to announce that Dennis Auslam will be putting on a confidence clinic at the Wooden Horseshoe Ranch, Friday May 10 & Saturday May 11, 2024. This is a 2-day clinic. 8am start time, ends around 4pm with periodic breaks. The total cost for the 2-day clinic is $300.00. A non-refundable deposit* of $50 is required to hold your spot by April 1, 2024. Balance will be due at check-in.
Please mail your check, payable to Wooden Horseshoe Ranch at:
39057 Variolite St NW
Dalbo, MN 55017
*Non-refundable if you do not show up - this is to reserve the space as space is limited. This is refundable if the clinic is cancelled for any reason. We may reschedule due to weather and deposit will be applied to the replacement date.
We have limited spaces available for this clinic. Please fill out the form below to attend this clinic. We encourage you to bring your horse for that trust building experience, but if you would like to attend without your horse, we have horses available we can assign to you as well.
This clinic not only builds the horse's confidence, but also your confidence in handling the horse while building trust between the both of you. Even if you are a beginner through advanced, this clinic is a great way to learn the right way or refresh your skills for safely and confidently handing your horse.
Bridle Up with Dennis Auslam clinics will take you farther into having a safe mount and a balanced horse while learning correct cues, training methods and principles of the balanced horse and rider. Learn how a horse thinks, responds to pressure, releases from pressure, and acts during threatening situations. Work is done on movement of the horse and how to cue for correct leads, moving each part of the horse individually (hindquarters, ribcage, and shoulders), rollbacks and correct stopping maneuvers. Obstacles are also part of these clinics in order to learn how to control the horse from the ground in a safe manner while boosting the horse’s own confidence. Dennis believes strongly in desensitizing the horse and he will teach you techniques you can continue to use on your horse at home to make your mount a safe and enjoyable ride.
