America’s Horse, October 26, 2009 — Establish the kind of relationship with your horse in which you are the captain of the ship and he is the follower that looks up to you. AQHA Professional Horseman Julie Goodnight helps give riders the horsemanship skills to create such a relationship in her clinics. Earlier this year, Julie presented three clinics at the first-ever QuarterFest in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. One of her clinics focused on common equitation problems.
If you missed Julie at QuarterFest, a video series of her QuarterFest clinic launches this week on americashorse.tv, the American Quarter Horse Association’s free online television network.
Julie, who is also the international spokesperson for the Certified Horsemanship Association, believes that horseback riding is a true balance sport and has been compared to both ballet dancing and downhill skiing as activities that require an extreme amount of balance.
