  • Gord Searle Horsemanship
    Two Day Horsemanship Clinic: Handling and Tricks
    • RJ Ranch 11 south of Strathmore on TWP RD 332
      Strathmore, AB
      • GORD SEARLE PRESENTS:
        HORSEMANSHIP CLINIC: Handling & Tricks

        If You Own A Horse, This Clinic Is For You!

        Two-day clinic: January 8-9 10am-5pm
        &
        Two-day clinic: January 22-23, 10am-5pm
        RJ Ranch, Strathmore, Alberta
        JUST 8 SPOTS AVAILABLE!

        Gord Searle travels across Canada and the US holding demonstrations and clinics designed to help horse owners like you get more out of the relationship with your animal. Gord uses the principles of natural horsemanship and 30 years of experience to teach you a deeper understanding of how horses think. Then he shows you how to use that knowledge to do more with your horse.

        At Gord Searle’s 2-day Handling & Tricks clinic, you will learn how to:

        • Get more cooperation from your horse, in less time with less stress.
        • Communicate better – know when to push and when to back off.
        • Become your horse’s leader. That‘s what they need you to be.

        Valuable for any horse owner but essential for anyone experiencing problems with horse behaviour, the clinic will cover basic horse control and Liberty. You’ll learn how to teach your horse to stay on your shoulder -- without a lead. You’ll learn the control necessary to send your horse away from you and then come back and stand calmly at your side.

        Gord believes you can “train without pain” and develop a relationship with your horse “built on trust and respect.” He was a feature performer at the 2010 Royal Winter Fair’s Spirit of the Horse event, but now you can learn Gord’s proven techniques in a small group with your horse.

        LOCATION: RJ Ranch, 11km south of Strathmore on 817, turn west on Township Road #232.

        COST: $275: a non-refundable deposit is required in advance. Spectators are welcome, $15 at the door.

  • Gord Searle
    Handling and Tricks with Gord Searle
    • RJ Ranch 817 and TWP RD 232
      Strathmore, Alberta
      • Due to the fact that our Clinic on January 8 and 9 sold out so quickly, we are having a second one. There are just 3 spots remaining.

        Gord Searle is holding a two-day trick and handling clinic! The clinic will be held just south of Strathmore, Alberta in a large indoor arena. This clinic is on Saturday, January 22 and Sunday January 23. It will start at 10 am and go till 5 pm. The clinic will cover basic horse control, then on to Liberty; from there we go to standing on a podium, to lying the horse down and more.

        Who is this clinic for? Anyone, who has their own horse. This clinic is about learning to understand your horse, then using that knowledge to do more with your horse. Learn how to clearly communicate with your horse, when to push and when to back off. Become your horse's Leader. That is what they need you to be. No more whacking your horse; learn to get more accomplished in less time with less stress. Plus, have a lot of fun! Let’s get out there and do what we love to do, play with horses.

        So if you are interested in doing more with your horse, having a deeper understanding on how they think, learning how to communicate better, then this is for you.

        Learn how to teach your horse to stay on your shoulder, without a lead on. Have your horse go away from you and then come back and stand calmly at your side.

        Gord Searle travels across Canada and the US holding demonstrations, clinics and more. He just returned from the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto, demonstrating at the Spirit of the Horse arena.

        This clinic has limited spots available, no more than 8 people and their horses. The cost for the two day clinic is only, $275 and a non-refundable deposit is required in advance. Spectators are welcome, $15 at the door. The clinic will beheld at RJ Ranch which is 11 k south on the 817, turn west on Township rd #232.
