Curious if anyone has attended a Jane Melby clinic before and if so your thoughts on it? I've attended a Josey clinic but I'm looking for a little more. I like how she keeps it limited to 20 people and I know she has a good competitive record. Just curious on thoughts on her as a clinician? Trying to figure out what to expect before I put down my deposit :) Thanks!

Yes and I would go back again. She is not just a jockey but a trainer as well. She wasn't "born into rodeo" so she started with "just a horse" and made a name for herself. She will also talk about life on the road too. She is certainly someone you can learn from and a very nice person as well.

I've been to a clinic but it was a spur of the moment short clinic. Our session was 4 hours. It was good and I'm glad I went. She primarily focused on: here's the path you need to take to make the fastest pattern.
It was a different topic then other clinics I've been to and it was helpful. She was also very good with answering lots of our questions about various things.

20 I feel is too many unless she has her husband or daughter helping her as well. I have even felt sometimes 15 is too many for one clinician. If I am interested in a clinic and I see they are accepting 20 participants, I won't go....to audit maybe not pay the extra to take a horse to ride maybe an hour....
