Welcome Summer Clinician Academy Class

0614_01ph

The summer session of the Clinician Academy is officially underway! Over the weekend, horsemen attending the course began checking in at the ranch in Farmington, Arkansas. They spent the weekend getting themselves and their two horses settled in and then gathered Monday morning for a meeting with Clinton and Professional Clinician Kristin Hamacher.

After the horsemen were welcomed to the course by Clinton and learned his expectations of them, Kristin put them straight to work training their horses in the roundpen. The class will spend the next several days working with their horses on the ground and then will begin training them under saddle.

The 10 horsemen enrolled in the course will live and breathe the Method for the next six weeks, focusing on training their personal horses and fine-tuning their understanding of the Fundamentals level of the Method. At the end of the session, they’ll be tested over their knowledge, and those earning passing scores will receive certification as Method Ambassadors.
