Deepen Your Horsemanship Skills at a Premier Wyoming Dude Ranch Clinic with Martin Black
This August, horse enthusiasts seeking to advance their skills have a rare opportunity to learn from a master. From August 17 to 23, 2025, renowned horseman Martin Black will lead a five-day Horsemanship & Stockmanship Clinic at Red Rock Ranch, a celebrated Wyoming Dude Ranch nestled in the scenic Jackson Hole area.
A Unique Blend of Tradition and Science
Martin Black draws from decades of ranching across Idaho, Nevada, and California. His clinics, grounded in both practical knowledge and neuroscience, are shaped by his collaboration with
Dr. Stephen Peters on Evidence-Based Horsemanship. This scientific approach equips riders to understand the “why” behind equine behavior, building trust and communication between horse and rider.
Held at one of the top-rated Wyoming Guest Ranches, this clinic is ideal for intermediate to advanced riders looking to refine their techniques in a focused, immersive environment.
