2-Day De-Spooking Clinic w/ Bill Richey


2-Day De-Spooking Clinic with Bill Richey & Radar
March 21–22, 2026 | Justin Stables – Montgomery, NY

Join us for an immersive two-day clinic with nationally recognized mounted police trainer Bill Richey and his trusted partner Radar.

This clinic is designed to systematically build confidence, trust, and emotional control—for both horse and rider—through a progressive series of obstacle and sensory challenges. From controlled exposure to movement, noise, and environmental pressure, Bill’s approach helps riders understand how to communicate clearly, stay grounded, and guide their horses through stressful situations with clarity and connection. Each morning begins with a short classroom session covering equine vision, hearing, and sensory processing so riders can better understand why horses react and how to support them through pressure.

Whether you are developing a young horse, preparing for unpredictable trail environments, or looking to strengthen your partnership under pressure, this clinic offers practical tools you can bring home and continue to use.
