Confidence Building Clinic, Saturday, March 21, 2026 (Rain date, Saturday, May 2, 2026)
HDH Members Only!
CLINICIAN: Cerena Cooper. 775-790-3049 or cerena713@gmail.com.
LOCATION: Taylor Arena, 9815 Iroquois Trail, Stagecoach, NV. This is a private residence so please do not bring dogs.
The day will be split into 2 sessions. You can register for either session or both. Bring your lunch if you register for both sessions. Lunch will be between sessions. Bring water for your horse.
PLEASE NOTE: Maximum of 10 participants in each session. The registration will automatically cut off when 10 participants register per session. If you are planning on doing both sessions, please register early. The morning or afternoon sessions could sell out, limiting registration for both sessions. This clinic sold out early last year so don't delay, register today!
Both sessions are designed to start building a cycle of positive experiences that will increase the confidence of the rider, the horse and the pair as a team. We will introduce mild props and obstacles in a controlled manner while practicing multiple techniques for handling stressful situations.
MORNING SESSION 9:30am - Noon (hand walk only): The early session will be hand walk only, suitable for less experienced riders and/or less experienced horses. This is also great for yearlings and young horses not yet being ridden.
AFTERNOON SESSION 12:30pm - 3:30pm (mounted only): The afternoon session will be mounted with a small increase in the difficulty of the props & obstacles. For experienced riders with “been there, done that” horses your participation would be valuable for the group, call Cerena ahead and she will make sure to have things to make your day worthwhile.
CANCELLATION/REFUND POLICY: Cancellations after March 14th are non-refundable unless your spot is filled from the waitlist.
WAITLIST: If you try to register and the clinic is full, please contact Cerena directly at 775-790-3049 or email cerena713@gmail.com to be on the waitlist.
