Get booked for this unique experience!
Do you have a c**t that’s ready to be started, or have you always wanted to start your own but aren’t sure where to begin? This clinic may be exactly what you need
THE FOUNDATION FIRST
C**t Starting & Young Horse Handling Clinic
Hosted by Poplar Ridge Ranch
This is not just a “3-day clinic.”
This is a step-by-step program designed to give you the tools, confidence, and support to properly start your horse the right way — and actually continue progressing at home.
⸻
🐴 WHAT MAKES THIS CLINIC DIFFERENT:
Most clinics end when you leave.
This one is built so your progress doesn’t.
You’ll learn the process, go home and apply it, and come back with guidance, feedback, and real results.
Clinic participants will gain exclusive access to a private Facebook group for continued support and coaching. This small, focused community allows for personalized feedback, additional training guidance, and ongoing help as you progress at home. It’s an opportunity for extra attention and mentorship beyond the clinic — giving you access to continued coaching that isn’t available to the general public.
