Horse Desentizing + Bomb Proofing Clinic with In Hand Obstacles

• Saturday December 13
• 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
• $125 / horse + handler
• Current Coggins required

Join Betsy Fajen's "Confidence Through Curiosity" for a day of confidence building designed to help horses become calmer, more adaptable, and mentally softer through exposure. This clinic focuses on in hand obstacle work giving horses and handlers the time and space to process new experiences with clarity.

Horses will be introduces to a series of controlled "scary" or stimulating elements such as tarps, flags, noodles, bridges, drag limes, rattles, visual noise, pressure and release zones and spatial squeeze work. The goal is not to overwhelm but to teach the horse they can stay thinking, wait for direction, and choose relaxation even in new or chaotic environments.

Handlers will learn:

• How to build "try" without tension
• How to recongonize and reward a mental change before a physical change
• Where to stand + how timing matters
• How to properly "send" with clarity
• How to help your horse come back to neutral quickly after stimulus

Whether your goal is Ranch Versatility, trail miles, Dressage, or just a safer everyday horse this clinic will give you a practical foundation work that carries into every discipline.

You can bring your own lunch or run out to local food establishments. We break around 12:00 for lunch and will resume at 1:00 for afternoon session.
