Aussie Horse Trainer Coming to Memphis, TN
June 21-22
If you’re a horse owner and have ever wondered what it would be like to ride a horse with the feather-light response of a top caliber sports car, you can’t miss Clinton Anderson’s Wahl Walkabout Tour in Memphis, TN June 21 and 22, 2008. The tour will be at the Agricenter International Showplace Arena.
The native Australian horse trainer and RFD-TV celebrity will bring his training techniques to the Agricenter International for the action packed Saturday and Sunday event. Topics covered include colt starting, trailer loading, spooky horses, groundwork, safety in the saddle, advanced riding and more. A crowd of more than 3,500 horse owners is expected.
As the host of two popular horse training television shows on the RFD-TV network (available on Dish and DirecTV to over 40 million homes), Anderson has helped countless riders achieve the level of success they desire with their horses. Now he’s passing his information on in an easy-to-understand, live format that’s designed to inspire and educate horse owners.
Attendees at the event will have the opportunity to watch Anderson work with problem and untrained horses on the ground and under saddle during eight separate demonstrations over the two days. Watching Anderson’s step-by-step techniques and explanation of every action will allow attendees to quickly learn how replicate the same respect and responsiveness with their own horses. On Sunday, the event ends with an advanced riding demonstration by Anderson with one of his own trained horses that allows horse owners to see the end result of Anderson’s training techniques.
Attendees will also be able to personally ask Anderson any of their horse training questions during scheduled autograph sessions. Avid fans can even have their photo taken with Anderson, who is a two-time champion of the prestigious Road to the Horse Colt Starting Challenge (an event that gives trainers just 3 hours to train an unbroken horse to ride).
Event sponsors Wahl Clipper, Ritchie Waterers, Horse and Rider Magazine, EZ All, ABI Equine, WW Livestock Equipment, Featherlite Trailers, Classic Equine, Corona, Lexol and The Kent Group will also have booths on hand both days. Over $6,500 in free prizes will be given away throughout the weekend.
Ten percent of all ticket sales benefit the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association, a national non-profit organization which encourages the benefits of therapeutic riding.
Advance tickets are just $25 per person for the entire weekend pre-ordered.
Children 16 and under get in free. Tickets at the door are $50 each. Doors open at 7:30 am and the all-day program starts at 8:00 am each day.
