Hosting a Clinic

Hosting a Brain-Centered Horsemanship Clinic

Thank you for your interest in bringing Horse of a Different Color to your facility!
Our Brain-Centered Horsemanship™ clinics offer a powerful, eye-opening experience for riders, auditors, and horses alike.

These aren’t just riding clinics — they’re learning experiences.
We blend neuroscience, teaching expertise, and real-world horsemanship to help horses and humans understand each other on a deeper level. Riders walk away saying, “I’ve never heard it explained like this before.”

And our auditors?
They are fully immersed in the day — not sitting on the sidelines. Auditors receive the same workbook riders do, take part in the discussions, and often get hands-on moments with our horses (and sometimes the horses of clinic participants). Many auditors tell us they’ve never learned so much at a clinic before and that the information alone is worth far more than what we charge. It’s the kind of engaged, curious group we naturally draw in.

Our clinics are suitable for all disciplines and all experience levels.
Every rider and auditor will gain practical tools rooted in the 7 Cs™:

Cognition (how horses and humans learn)
Connection
Communication
Conditioning
Confidence
Choice
Clicker

If you're ready to offer something unique, educational, and transformative to your community — something riders and auditors will talk about long after the clinic ends — you’re in the right place.
