Intensive Clinics
If you are looking to not only improve your relationship with your horse, but to gain a thorough understanding of Luke’s approach, and how to apply these tools and principles to any horse you work with in the future, these clinics are for you!
Luke's clinics have a very personalized format, with plenty of individualized attention
for each student and horse.
Luke works in small groups with two participants at a time. Each participant has two sessions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, each day with their horses.
Clinics typically begin at 9:20 a.m. and end at approximately 5:00 p.m. each day and there is a lunch break in between the morning and afternoon sessions..
Luke often shares a demo with his horses at the beginning or end of the day.
Luke's work focuses on combining relationship-based training with an emphasis on
healthy biomechanics and high-level performance.
