Clinton will be in the Tri Cities for his Wahl Walkabout Tour next weekend t the Trac in Pasco. This is an extremely informative event and I highly recommend attending if you can. Here is the schedule.
Saturday 8:00 - 9:00
Horsemanship Philosophy
Clinton explains the basic philosophies underlying the Downunder Horsemanship program. This gives everyone a great basis of understanding for the rest of the weekend.
Saturday 9:00 - 12:00
Colt Starting
Saturday's training schedule starts with a bang as Clinton shows you all of the colt starting techniques that helped him win an unprecedented two Road To The Horse Colt Starting Championships. You won't want to miss Clinton demonstrating his very effective and entertaining "human curry comb" technique! Watch as Clinton progresses to saddling preparation with flexing exercises that result in a more responsive and confident first ride. You'll have a ringside seat to see Clinton's unique approach to the first ride, which yield a safer, more confident horse under saddle. If you love working with young horses, this is a demonstration you will remember and benefit.

Lunch Break
Saturday 1:00 - 2:30
Gaining Your Horses Respect on the Ground
In this session, Clinton demonstrates how to get your horse to respect and pay attention to you using only a halter and lead rope. You'll learn how to gain your horse's respect by teaching him to move forward, backward, left and right in response to your cues. Clinton shows you a whole series of ground work exercises to get the horse's attention and cooperation. He'll demonstrate his approach to ground work on a horse who has not had any round pen training. Clinton uses problem, untrained horses throughout the weekend to show you how effective his techniques truly are. Not only will you notice a huge improvement in the horse's attitude and confidence by the end of the session, but you will also learn how you can gain your horse's respect if a round pen is not available.

Advanced Riding Demonstration
Preparation meets inspiration in the culminating event of the tour weekend! Clinton works with one of his trained horses to show you how all of the steps come together, and to illustrate what a trained horse should look and feel like. You will see him demonstrate lead changes, sliding stops, spins and more advanced maneuvers. Even if you never want to compete, getting your horse to be this cooperative and responsive is a worthy goal - just for the joy of riding! This is the most anticipated event of the entire weekend, where you see the finished result of all of Clinton's techniques. We guarantee you'll be amazed and inspired to return home to your own horses. .
