What Others Have To Say
"I attended Amber and Isidro's horsemanship clinic is July of 2023. Me and my 4yr old Quarter horse cross, Odin, were working on ground manners and better control in the saddle. Amber was incredibly patient and helpful with our issues with ground manners and ground work. I especially appreciated her use of R+ and she increased my understanding of its use. Both Amber and Isidro helped us with our ridden work and I left the clinic with several arena exercises that have really helped us get safely out on the trails. This clinic was unique in that it provided a lot of one on one help with each horse and riders individual needs, rather than the typical group format most clinics offer. Their format was clear and well organized and I felt we received a lot of help and attention for the price of the clinic. It's clear that Amber and Isidro put a lot of heart, and sweat, into what they do. They are the real deal, and I would highly recommend their clinics to other riders."
