This weekend, Joel Conner returns to SAFE for our first clinic of 2025. Here he talks a bit about the style of horsemanship we use here at SAFE, and why.
Fellow equestrians, horse lovers, and curious minds—this clinic is for YOU!
Joel Conner is an highly respected horseman whose dedication to classic vaquero horsemanship helps horses find peace, confidence, and willingness in their work—whether on the trail, in the arena, or simply standing for the farrier.
Auditing this clinic gives you a front-row seat to his invaluable teaching, where you’ll gain knowledge about effective groundwork, riding, and building a responsive, trusting partnership with your horse.
Auditors are always welcome!
Groundwork Class: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Riding Class: 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Auditing Fee: $30 cash/day (FREE for SAFE volunteers & alumni!)
What to Bring: A comfy chair, lunch, snacks, and your favorite beverage!
Spread the word about this event with your fellow riders, barn friends, and equestrian groups!
