Tonimbuk clinic July 2008

The weather was not the only thing that blessed us at the Tonimbuk clinic.  The venue provided by our welcoming hosts, Jane and Sarah Mclaughlin, made a perfect setting for a wonderful experience. 

Small spaces,  big spaces, great footing arena, paddocks for the horses, bedrooms for the people, all in a gorgeous valley with kangaroos surprising some of the horses who hadn’t seen them that close before!  Most of us stayed at the house for the week, making for a really close group.

And the people… the people were all so special.  How come that always seems to happen in our clinics?

Leonie & Buddy communingLeonie, a green rider with her beautiful standardbred Buddy, found a connection and softness that astounded all of us, even the experienced riders.  Buddy progressed from stiff and resistant to soft and willing, with massive changes to his body as well as his mind.
