Cross training Clinic – Kingston Maurward Indoor arena💜
Friday 2nd January – 3.00pm to 5.00pm (1 hour sessions)
This clinic is all about confidence, control and connection – not “being taught a lesson”. You’ll walk your horse through a series of fun, gymnastic-style zones designed to improve:
• Proprioception (where their feet are!)
• Accuracy & straightness
• Focus & relaxation
• Trust between horse and rider/handler
We’ll be using things like:
💜 A confidence bridge (front feet / all fours / hind feet) for confidence, coordination and body awareness
💜 Pole pathways for straightness, rhythm and proprioception (where their feet are!)
💜 Diamond poles for core strength, balance and suppleness
💜 Cup work for accuracy, focus and steering control
💜 “Halt, breathe, back up, halt, breathe, walk on” for calm transitions, responsiveness and manners
💜 Wrong-side mounting for real-life flexibility and confidence (with ground support)
💜 Carrot stretches for mobility through the neck, back and ribcage
💜 Barrels and a cue, for steering, control and confidence around “odd” objects. Then advancing to picking up a hoop
You can work in-hand or ridden (or a mix), depending on what’s best for you and your horse on the day. The aim is that you both go home feeling like you’ve really gained skills and exercises, not just been round in circles.
