Stacy Westfall

Ken McNabb

www.westfall horsemanship.com

www.kenmcnabb.com

Great insight and an effective teaching style have made Stacy Westfall one of the most popular and sought after clinicians in the horse industry. Her famous bareback and bridleless championship ride, seen by millions on the Internet, led to an appearance on the Ellen Degeneres show. In addition to her accomplishments within the reining arena, Stacy Westfall is the only woman to win the Road to the Horse colt starting competition. In 2012 Stacy was also inducted into the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, Texas. With her husband, Jesse, she presents clinics at venues worldwide to inspire and teach people how to build better relationships with their horses.

This year, Clifford’s show features humor and tricks in an unsurpassed demonstration of the human/equine bond. He is the only horse in the world who signs his own biography “Clifford of Drummond Island”. Painting with a sponge and watercolors, Clifford is also one of the world’s only equine artists. His trainer, Michigan artist/author Nancy J. Bailey brings Clifford's equine antics to events across the country.

Amanda Berges is a certified independent saddle fitter and owner of The Saddle Tree, LLC where she works on all makes of English saddles. Her background as a trainer, instructor, judge, and author of “Training Tree for Riders” all contribute to her understanding of how horses need to be able to move their bodies for various disciplines, and how saddle design and fit can interfere with performance if not well matched. Amanda’s specialty is fitting the “hard to fit” horse, and she is armed with solutions for your keg-on-legs, shark fin withers, or anything in between! Frequently riders think their horses have medical or training issues, when actually it is the saddle interfering with their performance. Her goal for her presentations is to take the mystery out of saddle fitting and to help you determine whether your saddle is helping or hindering you and your horse.
