KALI KIGER HORSE CLINICS

"Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Working first from the stand point of the relationship, we will build a toolkit you can use to create clearer communication with your horse, fill your horse’s bucket, and overall make owning a horse more fun.

Discovering your horse’s goals and motivations

If you need someone to get on your horse we are happy to provide a catch rider. You’re welcome to haul a horse in or if you simply want to learn but don’t have a horse we work with several horse rescues and can provide one. We also have extra tack, like treeless saddles, that can be borrowed for the clinic when clinic participants run into an unnecessary road block.
