Learn and connect with like-minded riders.
Take your riding education to the next level.
There’s something special that happens when a group of riders comes together with the same goal. Kindness, clarity, and a deeper partnership with their horses. My clinics are built around that feeling.
A clinic with me isn’t just a series of lessons, it’s a weekend where you will deepen your knowledge and get inspired again in your riding. You’ll watch others ride, see different horses work through the same principles, get all your questions answered, and get insights that you can apply at home immediately.
Whether you ride on a neckrope, bitless, or with a bit, the focus remains the same: lightness, balance, and putting the horse first.
Why clinics work so well
Participating in a clinic gives you something lessons don’t: perspective. You get to:
- See how the same concepts work in very different horses
- Get inspired by how others work with their horses
- Learn from questions from fellow riders you never even thought of
- Feel part of a community and meet riders that also put the horse first
- See how the same concepts work in very different horses

A method that puts the horse first.
Every lesson is tailored to you and your horse, with a focus on harmony, balance, and long-term soundness. Whether you are just starting out or exploring more advanced work, I will help you to truly understand the core principles of classical dressage and bridleless riding.
I also believe that both horse and rider should be satisfied after one of my lessons. Therefore, I offer a full refund if you are not happy with your first lesson, no questions asked.

If you would like to experience a clinic yourself or join my group of organizers, I would love to hear from you. Introducing classical and kind riding in your area doesn’t have to be that difficult, organizing a clinic can be easier than you think.
