Horsemanship Clinic w/Ben Longwell
May 9 - May 10
Date: May 9-10, 2025
Time: 9:00am – 4:00pm
Location: Hood River Saddle Club, 4384 Belmont Dr, Hood River, OR 97031
Capacity: 12 max
Description:
Our Horsemanship Clinic format will have a maximum of 12 participants split into 2 groups of riders with a max of 6 in each group. The focus will be on feel, communication, leadership and progressing on the horse/rider relationship. Each group will have a practical 1.5hr session with their horse in morning and afternoon. A huge benefit of these clinics is you get a shorter session with more 1-on-1 time with Ben to really concentrate on personal progress. You then have the bonus to have a soaking/breathing time while spectating the other group’s sessions – learning from a huge range or situations which you can then apply to your horsemanship journey as well.
Potluck dinner in the clubhouse Friday night.
