About This Clinic
BUILD A CONFIDENT, WELL-ROUNDED HORSE
This clinic is your introduction to ranch obstacles — bridges, gates, tarps, and the everyday challenges that build a well-rounded, confident horse. Working with Steady Horse certified clinicians, you’ll develop the handleability, skills, and understanding needed to help your horse navigate simple tasks with genuine confidence.
We break everything down step by step, teaching your horse in a way that sticks — so both you and your horse walk away with real mastery, not just surface-level compliance. Every rider receives a personal assessment at the end of the clinic, along with homework and exercises to continue making progress at home.
- Step-by-step obstacle training with certified clinicians
- Bridges, gates, tarps, and trail obstacles
- Personal assessment and take-home homework
- Small group setting — max 12 participants
- Auditor spots available — watch and learn
Registrants get access to a free 30-day Steady Horse Club trial
The Experience
WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE
Foundation & Trust
Start with groundwork that establishes communication and builds the trust your horse needs to approach new obstacles with curiosity instead of fear.
Obstacle Work
Work through bridges, gates, tarps, and trail obstacles with step-by-step guidance. Every obstacle is broken down so your horse understands each piece before moving forward.
Assessment & Homework
Leave with a clear picture of where your horse is in their development — plus practical exercises you can work on at home to keep building confidence.

LEARN FROM THE BEST
SOMETHING NO OTHER TRAINER OFFERS
Most clinics hand you a receipt and say “see you there.” We do things differently. After you secure your spot, you’ll have the opportunity to activate a free 30-day trial of the Steady Horse Club — giving you full access to the Unbreakable Bond Roadmap, our complete training library, and the philosophy behind everything the clinicians will be working on with you and your horse.
Start practicing with your horse at home before the clinic, learn the Steady Horse language and techniques ahead of time, and show up ready to make the most of every minute. It’s the kind of advantage that turns a good clinic into a transformational one.

What People Are Saying
FROM THE COMMUNITY
The ranch obstacle clinic pushed me and my horse in the best way possible. The obstacles are thoughtfully designed and the clinicians walk you through every step. We left more confident than ever.
The Steady Horse approach completely changed the way I work with my horses. You and your horse learn together, and it’s a method that actually makes sense. The in-person experience at Grace Ranch was worth every mile.
