Off-site Clinic and Course Options
Costs vary depending on location and travel
Clinics and courses can be tailored to suit the needs of the group. We can do one or two day learn to trim classes where participants learn to trim their own horses, or we can expand and run a full 5 day learn to trim course if the host has enough horses available for students. We can also cover glue on shoes or rehab cases, the possibilities are completely up to the clinic host and organizers.
I also travel to do private 1 on 1 trimming coaching for rehab cases and those who want to learn at home, in a private setting, on their own horses.
All off-site courses and clinics are subject to travel fees including airfare, hotel costs and a rental car if required. If you have a guest suite or other similar accommodations, those can be considered to reduce costs. However, a private comfortable space to recharge and relax in the evenings is required. If the situation allows, I sometimes travel with my husband so that he can assist with courses and clinics. In these cases, his airfare and related expenses are not charged to the host or students.
To host a 1-2 day trimming clinic the requirements are as follows:
The host must have a facility suitable for trimming multiple horses. 1 or 2 day clinics have a maximum number of 8 participant students including the host, and unlimited auditors (auditor fees go directly to the host and are charged at the host's discretion). The host/participants must provide 2-4 horses for teaching and trimming demonstrations and participants must have their own horses for trimming. The cost of this clinic is billed at $1000 CAD per day plus travel fees, plus GST to be split between the participants at the host's discretion.
