Testimonials from past clinics
" My husband and I really enjoyed the clinic, the hosts made us and our horses feel quite comfortable - Martin was awesome, he had patience and made you really want to learn and best of all to feel - learning is only half of the lesson, the completion is the feeling!!!! Martin had a way with the horses where they very much understood what he wanted, in return he taught each of us to teach our horses what we wanted by spending time with each of us, kinda like a private lesson. The roping was excellent, I needed to emphasize on rope management - and did so with Martins help. We will be taking Martin's clinic again, and learning and feeling more each time." Gayle D
“For me and my horse, Martin Black’s clinic was a superb learning experience. Martin breaks each exercise down to ensure that the basic elements of the movement are mastered. He emphasizes using weight shifts to prepare the horse for stops, backups, pivoting and turns. As the clinic progressed I found my horse getting lighter and lighter -– almost magically. When we advanced to working with rope and moving cattle, this preparation really paid off. Martin is patient, thorough and will take the time to work through individual problems. I highly recommend the clinic and plan to do his clinic again next year myself.” Dale B
“Martin Black is, without a doubt, a master horseman. He has a unique
ability to teach people how moves make sense to the horse and to the
human. Martin’s clinics are for the pleasure and professional riders alike.”
