TRISH HYATT & WORKING EQUITATION SIMPLIFIED PRESENT
The clinic that comes to your arena.
Five days, three obstacles, and you'll leave with a few real things to work on that are exactly what your horse needs.
Starts August 1.
If This Is You
Here's the thing about riding with other people.
You like it. Working on your horse's skills alongside folks who get it, someone there who can actually help, a bit of company in the arena. It's good for you and it's good for your horse.
It's just hard to come by. The time to get there. The money once you add it all up. And an event close enough, at the right level, that's actually worth the trip.
So you end up doing most of it on your own. Which is fine. But it isn't the same.
What This Is
So I've brought the clinic to you.
Five days, three obstacles, the Double Slalom, the Gate, and the Pen. A lesson drops each day and you ride it whenever it suits you. You post what happened, I have a look, and some rides get a full written review from me that the whole group learns from.
You ride with other people again, virtually. You watch their rides, they watch yours, and everybody's pulling for everybody. Nobody who shows up gets left out.
From your own arena, on your own schedule. No hauling, no hotel, no weekend gone.
- Live August 1 to 7. Ride each lesson on your own time during the week.
- Online. From your arena, wherever that is.
- A full 28 days of access, not just the live week.
- Every live Q&A recorded. Join us live or catch the replay.
The Real Math
A clinic weekend starts at $300 just for the lessons. That's before fuel, before a stall for your horse, before a hotel for you, before the whole weekend's gone.
And you know how the first lesson usually goes. Your horse is wound up in a strange place, so the first ride is half spent just getting his brain back. You've paid for it either way.
Then you drive home with a page of notes and nobody to ask. Within a week you've forgotten 90% of it. And the day your horse does something totally different from what he did at the clinic, you're on your own to figure out what to do about it.
This is $32. Your horse is relaxed because he's in his own arena. It's a week, not a weekend. Your access stays open a month, so when something new comes up next week, you can just ask.
More days, more support, more time. For less money.
Everything a clinic gives you, minus the parts that make it hard.
What You Get
- Three obstacles, broken down. The Double Slalom, the Gate, and the Pen. A lesson each, drop-in and ride when it suits you.
- A few real things to work on that fit your horse. Not the same answer for everyone. What comes out of your ride is yours, because every horse is starting somewhere different.
- Eyes on your ride. Post your video and what you noticed. Some rides get a full written review from me, in the community, that you can read whenever, and that the whole group learns from.
- A room full of riders. Watch everyone else's rides and see your own horse's challenges in theirs. This is the part you can't get riding alone.
- Feedback on your terms. Want suggestions from the other riders? Use the #Critique hashtag. Don't? Leave it off and you'll get encouragement only. You choose, every single post.
- Your questions answered. Add them to the questions post and they get priority. Come to a live Q&A and we can go deeper on your horse.
- A whole month, not just a week. Your access stays open 28 days. Keep building on what you found, in the community and the weekly calls, or start on something new.

Who This Is For
This is for you if...
- You like working on your horse with other people around, and you don't get to do it as often as you'd like.
- Whatever you and your horse are working at, walk or trot or canter, ridden or in hand, green or seasoned, you're in the right place.
You don't need the real obstacles and you don't need to be at any particular level. You need a horse and a place to ride.
What You'll Need
You probably already have everything.
Ride the real obstacles if you've got them. Otherwise, here's the minimum list for each:
- Double Slalom: three cones or markers, in about a 50-foot space.
- Gate: two uprights or jump standards and a piece of rope.
- Pen: a few cones for the middle, two more for the entrance.
- To share a ride: your phone and something to prop it on. Optional, but it's how you get eyes on your ride.
Soccer markers from Amazon are cheap and work fine.

Meet Your Guide
I'm Trish Hyatt.
I've spent over 40 years working with horses. Most of that time I was the person other trainers, coaches, and vets called when something had gone wrong. The job was to figure out what the actual issue was, and fix it.
What I noticed over and over was that the problem usually wasn't the horse. It was something in the communication, the timing, or the rider's understanding of what they were actually asking for.
That's why I teach with diagnostics rather than fixed methods. So you can read your own horse, on your own, without needing someone standing beside you every ride.
Working Equitation pulls all of that together. The flatwork, the obstacles, the precision, the communication. You can't hide in Working Equitation. The obstacles tell you exactly where you are.

What Riders Are Saying
Real feedback from real riders.
"Saying the Challenge has helped a ton is definitely an understatement!"
Brenda: "We've really enjoyed the Reverse Gate Confidence Challenge!!"
Trish: "Had you ever done a reverse gate before?"
Brenda: "We gave it a try last summer, but it ended up causing my horse a lot of anxiety and anticipation. So, saying the Challenge has helped a ton is definitely an understatement."
Brenda B.
"From anxious to confident: I improved my horse's performance!"
I knew the basics of the pen obstacle - to enter and circle both directions. I was missing was how to achieve a smooth transition at the pen entrance, maintain bend and tempo, re-enter while maintaining correct bend.
Trish broke it down into separate pieces to practice, then put together. The teaching process led me to successfully achieve my goals to fine-tune the pen.

Thank you, Trish~it makes perfect sense now that you have explained how to work with the horse's drift, keep their trust, and get them to realize you are working together as a team.

Frequently Asked Questions
A few things you might be wondering.
Is this live? I'm not sure I can be there at set times.
The lessons drop each day and you ride them whenever suits you. The only live pieces are the Q&A calls, and those are all recorded. Nothing about the clinic depends on you being somewhere at a set hour.
Do I have to post a video of myself riding?
No. You'll get the most from it if you do, because that's how you get eyes on your ride, but plenty of riders just read along and work their horse. And when you do post, you control the feedback: suggestions only if you ask for them.
What if I don't have the obstacles?
Then you're like most people. Three cones, a rope, and a few markers covers all three. I'll show you the setups. See the full list above.
Is this only for Working Equitation riders?
No. The obstacles come from Working Equitation, but bend, tempo, and standing quietly when you ask are the foundation of every kind of riding.
How long do I have access?
A full 28 days, so the clinic doesn't vanish when the week ends. You can keep working through it, and keep building on it in the community, all month.
Five days, three obstacles, and a few real things to work on that are exactly what your horse needs.
From your own arena, for $32.
Live August 1 to 7.
With community and weekly calls for the rest of the month.
