Introduction to Cutting Clinic #1: On May 3 & 4th Michelle Reed will be offering a “Cutting Fundamentals” clinic at theVanBoekel Farm. The clinic will focus primarily on horses and riders who have not been exposed to extensive cattle work and is geared towards riders who want to start from the ground up. The morning session will be spent working the “flag” ( a training mechanism that mimics the cow’s movements) with Michelle’s patient instruction as well as learning from the other riders and focusing on proper body position for the rider and the horse.

After a short break, where lunch will be available, the afternoon session will feature cattle works with Michelle talking each rider through the fundamentals of herd work, and cutting basics.

Sunday will be spent with a flag refresher for those interested, cattle works and a chance for horses and riders to learn to help in the pen as well, holding herd and turning back.

To register or for directions please contact Michelle 519-443-6601 or Amy 519-443-4605 or via email at ontariocutting@hotmail.com.
