This 4 day Bridging the gap clinic is the heart and soul of the three clinic Extravaganza.

About the three clinics being offered

2-Day Contact Clinic – October 11-12
4-Day Bridging the Gap Clinic (she likens this to speed dating!) – October 13-16
2-Day Lateral Work Clinic – October 17-18
 
Take one, or two, or if you and your horse are really fit, all three! Mix and match. Special pricing if you attend a 2-Day Clinic and the 4-Day Bridging the Gap Clinic.
 
Format for 2-Day Clinics: theory, simulations and then semi privates with lots of riding time. The purpose of the semi private lessons is to allow you to experience the instruction, practice, process, watch someone else do it—and repeat!

The unique Bridging the Gap Clinic with Lauren Barwick originated from her living in many worlds—Horsemanship, Dressage, and now Western through competitive Reining. Her goal is to emphasize that with Western, English, Dressage, Horsemanship—one is not right and the others wrong—it just depends on what your focus is.

Lauren will introduce freely forward, transitions without reins, soft feel/soft touch, rhythm and relaxation, stretching, biomechanics of horse and rider, as well as building confidence in horse and rider. This is a great clinic for the pleasure rider who wants to help their horse use themselves better, and for the more advanced rider to enhance their foundation in refinement, finesse and Dressage.

Each day begins with a theory lecture, then a morning group session and afternoon private lessons. Lauren ensures that you understand what each refinement feels like, and go home knowing what you and your horse are capable of.

Students of all levels, all disciplines, and whether new to refinement or dedicated dressage riders will find Lauren inspiring, encouraging, and incredibly approachable.
