Overview

These clinics are set up in a “course” format (yep, I can’t get away from my academic roots). There is no requirement to attend them as a full four-part course, but they are built to provide the greatest benefit as a set of building blocks. Each clinic establishes the groundwork for the next, from first (or early) rides (clinic 1), to early skill building for fences and deeper flat engagement (clinic 2), to cross-training skills at an eventing facility (clinic 3), to a weekend of competition and finessing details (clinic 4). The overarching goal is to build a skillset for retraining off-track thoroughbreds that provides ample skills and exercises, but also creates a community to help provide support and insight through challenges  share successes. 

This program is set to the schedule and tune of the Retired Racehorse Project’s Makeover. That said, while it should be helpful for anyone participating, it is not by any means a requirement to participate.
