 EVENTS AND CLINICS
Wendy Warner Clinic
April 16 and 17, 2005
Hosted by Marlborough Equestrian Center
What this clinic can do
for you:
Wendy has given clinics here at
MEC in the past and has a great
way of teaching the concepts of
ground handling, riding and training.
On Saturday evening from 6pm to
8pm, Wendy will give a lecture on
her concepts including many visual
aids to help participants understand
her message and concepts.
On Sunday morning, Wendy will
begin with a demonstration of her
techniques with one of the horses
of the participants. After this demonstration,
participants will mount
up in groups or privates depending
on the levels of the horses and riders
and put the concepts to work.
Riding sessions will be 1 1/2 hours
in length. If Wendy has time after
the lunch break, she will give another
demonstration on another
horse.
Auditors are welcome to attend!

ABOUT WENDY:
Wendy has been teaching for nearly three decades and has experience
in all riding disciplines. She holds a BHSAI certificate
from England and an Advanced Teaching License from the
state of Massachusetts. She was a groom for the United States
Three-Day Equestrian Team and is a graduate of the Morvan
Park Equestrian Institute, holding degrees in training, riding,
and teaching. She was a featured clinician at the 2001 Equine
Affair in Springfield, Massachusetts, and is a columnist for the
Horseman's Yankee Pedlar.
In 1990, Wendy was selected to receive the New England Dressage
Association Scholarship to work with Dr. Deb Bennet, a
nationally respected paleontologist and frequent columnist for
Equus Magazine and the USDF Bulletin. Her goal was to understand
how a horse's anatomy and conformation influence
his way of going. She has developed a special talent for analyzing
the horse's posture, finding out where he is stiff and locked,
and then developing exercises to relieve and release the stiffness.
Wendy is a firm believer in improving a horse's talent and performance
through suppling exercises which free the shoulders
and hind end. Her most significant successes have been with
problem horses. She had elicited improved performance
through her exercises and creative application of these techniques.
In addition to her formal training and education, Wendy has
worked with the biggest names in “Natural Horsemanship”
including Ray Hunt, Buck Brannaman, Bryan Neubert, Joe
Walter, Greg Eliel, Jeff Griffith, and others. She incorporates
the techniques she has learned into her training, communicating
with the horses in a way they can understand, and helping
them feel confident and secure in our environment. The result
is a calm, content, willing, and supple horse — ready for any
riding discipline.
