Each year, we hold a 10-day Colt Starting Clinic for our Method Ambassadors to receive certification to start colts for the public. This year’s clinic will take place August 1st through August 11th and will be taught by Professional Clinician Jeff Davis. Participation spots in the clinic are full.
Clinton added the additional certification for Method Ambassadors to help customers make better informed decisions about the clinician or ambassador they send their horses to. Ambassadors who complete a colt starting course and receive a passing mark from Downunder Horsemanship will be certified to accept colts for training. The certification does not permit them to teach clinics or private lessons focused on colt starting. Teaching other horsemen the colt starting techniques is reserved for Professional Clinicians.
