I am so looking forward to the annual TTEAM cllnics at my house.
With the teaching help of Lucie Leclerc, Marcy Baer, and other wonderful TTEAM teachers, and the input from Connected Riding practitioner Susanna Widrig, it can't help but be a winner - as ever!
"This year we're calling the training

Sarah Fisher speaking about the significance of paying attention.
Take a look, and if it interests you there are two articles on my website that you may enjoy. One is Sarah's article on Tension Patterns in Horses, the other an article of mine about why it's worth paying attention. It's called Shedding Some (Candle)Light on Resistances in Horses. They are both articles I suggest that new students read in preparation for a clinic with me.
"I'm also looking forward to the clinic because I'm always curious to see what it will bring - they are all different. Whatever we do will be guided by the needs of the horses and the interests of the participants.
"I trust you'll plan to join us!
All the best"
