Connection begins long before the halter comes off. Join Foundations Professional Equine for a two-day Connection & Liberty Clinic focused on developing clearer communication, greater trust and a more genuine partnership with your horse. Through groundwork and liberty exercises, participants will explore: • Reading their horse’s body language and focus • Using energy, position and timing more intentionally • Developing draw, drive and connected movement • Building consistency without losing softness • Staying connected through transitions and changes of direction This clinic isn’t about tricks or shortcuts. It’s about learning how to communicate in a way your horse can understand—and creating the kind of connection that carries into everything else you do together. 📅 October 17–18, 2026 ⏰ 8:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. both days 📍 Lethbridge Therapeutic Riding Association Arena 💰 $450 per participant 👀 Auditors attend free Register online: https://www.foundationsproeq.com/clinics-lessons You can also call or text: Amber: 403-795-1008 Jay: 403-332-1135 Or email [email protected].

🐴 Upcoming at Foundations: Crossing Obstacles Clinic Obstacles give us a chance to learn far more than whether a horse will cross a bridge, walk through a curtain or step into water. They show us where communication is clear, where confidence begins to fade, and how well horse and rider can pause, think and work through a challenge together. On August 8–9, we’ll be welcoming a small group of riders to our outdoor arena and obstacle space for two days focused on building trust, curiosity, softness and practical problem-solving. The clinic includes: • Individualized coaching in a group limited to eight riders • A wide variety of practical and engaging obstacles • Exercises that build communication, body control and confidence • A structured participant workbook • Step-by-step plans to continue the work at home • A horse pen, dry camping and access to our group fire pit The clinic runs from 8:30 AM–5:30 PM both days and is suitable for riders ages 12+ who can comfortably manage their horse at the walk, trot and lope. Cost: $450 Deposit: $100 to hold your spot Auditing: Free You can learn more or register here: https://www.foundationsproeq.com/clinics-lessons Can’t join us in person? We are also developing a future at-home version for the Foundations Skool community. It won’t replace the individualized coaching and hands-on experience of attending live, but it will make the clinic’s information and progression plans available to those who cannot travel to us. More details will come once it is ready.

Every horse and rider combination faces challenges. Sometimes it's a specific training issue. Sometimes it's confidence, consistency, communication, or simply finding enough time to work toward your goals. What's the biggest challenge you're currently working through with your horse? Feel free to share as much or as little detail as you'd like. You never know who might be facing something similar.

Hey Amber Skoog 👋 Just checked out Foundations Horsemanship. You're still early enough to structure the community properly before growth starts kicking in — which honestly is the best possible timing. We're currently helping new Skool owners turn empty/basic communities into launch-ready ecosystems completely free. Examples + full breakdown here: 👉 Community Launch Before vs after examples below 👇

We spend a lot of time focusing on what needs improvement, but every horse has strengths worth celebrating. What is one thing your horse does really well? It might be something under saddle, on the ground, on the trail, or simply part of their personality. What makes your horse special?
