Events
Pay-to-Plays
These events may be considered "open-practice" sessions. For a set fee and time period, the course is open to participants to explore the course and practice obstacles of their choosing. The events are meant to be fun and relaxing, but encourage participants to engage with each other and patiently work with their four legged partners, building a partnership and conquering challenges together.
Clinics
Clinics are a great way to learn something new and strengthen the bond between you and your horse. If you are struggling with an obstacle, fear, or would just like to spend a fun day outside trying something new, our clinics are for you! Our EMT Clinicians are very experienced in obstacle training and are incredibly patient and kind. Classes are typically small, limited to approximately 10-15 people to ensure you get adequate one-on-one time with our clinician.
Challenges
Challenges are similar to judged trail rides in that a horse and rider (or leader) pair will traverse a set pattern of 10-15 obstacles where they will be judged in accordance with standards set forth by PMT. Points are lost or gained depending on how well the pair traverses the obstacle.
Two types of challenges may be offered, which include Schooling Challenges and PMT Challenges. Schooling Challenges do not allow riders to accumulate points, but rather practice competing in a Challenge and learning from the Judge. PMT Challenges allow riders to accumulate points towards year end awards and/or to qualify for other PMT Challenges around the US.
