At the Norco clinic, you'll have opportunities to meet Goodnight in person and to ask your horsemanship questions. Learn what will help you progress with your horse during the "Up-Close-And-Personal" events which focus on helping the riders in each clinic. Plus, Goodnight offers great door prizes from her sponsors (such as gifts from Circle Y, Nutramax Laboratories, Redmond Rock, Troxel, Myler Bits and more). You'll also have the opportunity to test ride one of Goodnight's signature saddles.
At the Chino Hills clinic, Goodnight will help with all your Western riding questions and help you achieve all you'd like with your ranch horse. Introduce your horse to cattle in a gentle environment where safety--not speed--is key. Goodnight frequently competes in National Ranch Horse Versatility Association competitions and is excited to bring this fast-growing sport to you. Work at your own pace as you learn reining maneuvers, cow work skills and more. This is a great chance to expand your horsemanship knowledge! Watch or ride.
About Goodnight's training methods:
It's different at Julie's clinics. It's meant to be a time to learn in a positive, fun, intimate environment. You won't be two stories above, watching her talk but never talking with her. Instead, this is your time to ask Julie about your horse;it's your time to ride with Julie so that you know exactly what she'd do next to help you reach your goals.

What Julie's ClinicAttendees Say:
I have nothing but the highest praise for my experience. Julie was always calm, low-key, positive about every rider and every horse, and, an excellent teacher. I liked the fact that she was teaching horsemanship and all of us, together with our horses,could learn something from each session. I would recommend her to anyone at any level interested in becoming a better rider.

Julie Goodnight conducts horsemanship clinics for all disciplines (English and Western) and all ability levels, at various private and public facilities in North America. Clinics are fun and active, with a focus on bridging natural horsemanship techniques with the principles of classical riding. Julie's teachings are focused on finding success and improvement for each and every horse and rider by developing a deeper understanding of the horse and riding skills that lead to a balanced and rhythmic rider and a light and responsive horse. Clinics are each two days, 9-5, and there are a maximum of fifteen riders in the clinic.
Expect to work together in the arena all day, doing both ground work and mounted work, with a focus on refining riding skills and developing a better relationship with your horse. All ability levels are welcome as long as the rider has basic control at the walk and trot. Each rider works at his/her own pace without pressure to go outside you or your horse's comfort zone. You may bring two horses if you want to; the only additional charge is for stalling. Click here for a detailed PDF: http://juliegoodnight.com/images/clinicprep.pdf
