LOPE Texas has announced that it is honored to be hosting a clinic by legendary horsemen Ray Hunt on March 11-13, 2006.

According to LOPE Texas Executive Director Lynn Rorke, "Ray Hunt's attitude and philosophy about the horse and its relationship to its rider, combined with his techniques that have been refined over 30 years, will be one of the most inspiring influences on you and your horse."

She continued, "You'll see this master horseman interact naturally with horses, without gimmicks or force. You'll experience and begin to understand the mental togetherness that eliminates forcing and leads a horse to learn to accept your ideas as his ideas."

The clinic will consist of two classes – Colt Starting and Horsemanship. The Colt Starting class will be in the mornings. The cost per horse and rider for this class is $500*. The Horsemanship class will be in the afternoons. The cost per horse and rider for this class is $500*. Auditors are welcome as well ($30 per person, per day).

*Stabling and/or arena use fees aren’t included and may be an additional charge.

Please contact Lynn Rorke at lynn@lopetx.org or (512) 565-1824 for more details on registration and clinic format.
