Warwick Schiller Horse Clinic
- Horse owners with horse problems have help coming to their rescue. National Reining Horse Association Reserve World Champion and one of today’s most in-demand equine clinicians, Warwick Schiller, is holding a horse clinic, September 28-29, 2013 at the Rusty Spur Ranch in Ione, CA.
“Warwick's ability to solve horse problems is a skill that only the world's finest horsemen possess, but his unique gift lies in his ability to explain the how, why and when of what he does with the horses. ‘Making the Wrong Thing Hard and the Right Thing Easy,’ is Schiller’s easy to understand no-nonsense philosophy. We are very lucky to have someone of Warwick Schiller’s caliber coming to our area to help,” said Shell Brodnax, the clinics coordinator.
Occasionally, horse owners experience issues in training their horses such as being anxious, going too fast, going too slow, flighty, won’t leave other horses, won’t stand still, hard to bridle, backing up issues, trouble with trailer loading, not picking up a certain lead or just plain old spooking. Whether you are a seasoned rider or a beginner, if your horse is young or has some miles, this is the clinic you don’t want to miss.
Clinic fees are very affordable at only $150.00 per day, per rider, for one horse and only $25.00, per day, to audit per person. Space is limited and advance sign-up is required.
