5 participants will join Karen for 10 weeks of development

This course fulfills students' desires to take theory into practice in order to make real progress in their skills and their horse's gymnastic development. During these weeks students will learn how to assess the biomechanics, make strategies for improvement, follow through, and re-assess.

Take your horse's gymnastic skill to the next level.

Rider.Man.Ship, Teacher.Man.Ship and Client Relations will also be addressed

Since there are only 5 spots available, I will be making selections from the applicants based on:

1. More advanced foundational skills
2. Professionals (Parelli or non)
3. Familiarity with my teaching

"I am so excited to run this course and give a few horses and riders this chance to take their next steps together in this focused, supportive environment."   ~Karen

Theory is so important, but nothing is quite the same as getting feedback in real time! The training and development process is rarely a smooth straight line and often even the best strategy doesn't feel good in the moment ... Until it works, of course! Sometimes every logic will tell you what the plan should be, but the horse will still tell you otherwise! Making excellent decisions can be difficult for any trainer.

Can't do the 10 weeks but want to be part of the experience? There are Auditor Days! One is at the beginning and one is at the end of the course.

• Auditor Day 1 is to see the 'before'
• Auditor Day 2 will be at the end of the course to find out how it all worked out!

In the first session you will be there for Karen's first view of the horses and listen as she assesses, and makes an initial plan. The second session you will hear from Karen as well as the participants as they describe what worked, what didn't, and where we go from here. It's not about quick miracles, but about a real, methodical development experience.

Next course is April 2 - June 11, 2011 Application deadline is September 1, 2010
