Your Horse Plus Our Phenomenal Results

Most horses never reach their full potential because their owners lack the consistency and knowledge to train them and continue to make progress with them. The Academy Horse Program ensures your horse performs at his individual best. The six-week training course teaches horses the groundwork and riding exercises from the Fundamentals Series in the arena and on the trail, and horses are worked consistently over the obstacle course. They also learn to be hobbled, to load on a trailer and to stand tied patiently. The majority of an Academy Horse’s training is done on the trail because Clinton knows that’s where most of his customers like to spend their time and he firmly believes that all horses should be able to be ridden confidently outside on a loose rein.

Horses accepted into the program are trained by Clinton’s Academy students and their progress through the Fundamentals is overseen daily by Clinton. Horses accepted into the program range from colts that need started to last-ditch-effort problem horses that have seriously injured people and have been turned away by other trainers. Although the horses all enroll in the Academy with varied backgrounds, they all leave with common traits – they’re safer, more respectful and more enjoyable to be around.

Not only will your horse improve, but so will you! At the end of each training session, you are invited to the ranch for an entire day’s lesson to learn what your horse has been taught and how to continue to progress his training at home. Help doesn’t stop there, though – every owner is given the guarantee of a lifetime of support to contact Downunder Horsemanship at any time to get help with any issue they’re having with their horse.
