Jon Ensign Colt Starting and Horsemanship Clinics- Range Road 23527, Township Road 505
Beaumont- Hurry and register for this phenomenal event...Jon was invited to the Trainer's Challenge at the Mane Event in Red Deer this April and did fantastic! If you want to improve your relationship with your horse, this is the clinic for you. Ride with the master... Colt Starting Clinic: June 6-9, 2008 (9 am - 3 pm) Cost: $600 This clinic is for unstarted young horses, or an older horse that needs to be restarted. The first two days of the clinic will center on exercises to get your horses’ respect on the ground and desensitize him to behaviors and things that he will encounter during the first saddling and ride. During the next two days, we will use these exercises to saddle and ride! This is six-hour, four-day clinic. We will take frequent breaks as we do not want to push a young horse too fast too soon. I have found this extended clinic session really is very successful and builds the most broke colts, and I feel it is what sets my colts apart. Horsemanship Clinics: June 6-8, 2008 (5 pm - 8 pm) Cost: $350 Foundation Horsemanship This clinic is designed for beginners - horses or handlers. It is great for horses that are missing bricks in their foundation, or new horse owners. You will learn how to get respect on the ground and desensitizing techniques as well as proper handling basics for beginners. The emphasis is on groundwork and we will do some riding when everyone is ready. This is a three-hour, three-day clinic. Horsemanship I This riding clinic is for horses that are broke to ride safely under control in a group setting. We will work on exercises that will get collection and softness, and further control and responsiveness. I prefer that you use a snaffle bit for this clinic. This is a three-hour, three-day clinic. Horsemanship II This clinic is for riders that have been through Horsemanship I. We will refine earlier exercises for a softer feel, quicker responses and build on your relationship with your horse. Bring a curb or bosal if you wish to this clinic. This is a three-hour, three-day clinic. Please contact Tara Gamble at tcgamble@shaw.ca or 780-945-7516 to register.

Colt Starting - for unstarted, or restarting problem horses. Students learn under the hands on help from Peter. Horsemanship 1- Build on the basics of beginner horsemanship, no groundwork involved.
