We recommend that the rider bring the best trained horse they have in order to learn and focus on the exercises which John is teaching. Then you can take those lessons learned and apply them to any other horses you wish. Any horse, mule, etc. is welcome to the clinic other than an unbroken horse, unless the rider would only like to focus on ground training, saddling the first time and only ground work. Unbroken horses will not be ridden during this clinic or on the clinic grounds unless agreed to by John in writing while at the clinic, as this is not a starting clinic. However you will learn and gain knowledge that will aide you in the starting of your horse. Unbroken horses must do the five day session. The training methods John teaches apply to all styles of riding, and all breeds of horse's, and all ages.
