Wet labs are immersive, hands-on experiences created for dedicated practitioners, trainers, and riders. Participants receive preparatory written materials in advance, allowing for a more focused and productive in-person session. Each lab incorporates live horse work, giving attendees the opportunity to develop skills in real time and immediately translate techniques into practice.

PROFESSIONAL LAB RATING SCALE

• Basic: These introductory labs are for participants seeking to build foundational knowledge of the topic. The material provides a comprehensive introduction, covering essential concepts and skills through guided, hands-on practice. 

• Intermediate: These labs are designed for participants who have a functional understanding of the topic or skill and are ready to expand their knowledge. The course will move beyond basic concepts to focus on more advanced techniques, specific applications, and practical problem-solving. This is an ideal next step for those looking to apply their existing knowledge in a more in-depth, hands-on environment.

• ​Advanced: Intended for experienced participants, these labs focus on sophisticated techniques, complex problem-solving, and professional application of skills. The curriculum assumes a high level of prior knowledge, allowing for a deeper exploration of nuanced concepts and best practices. Participants can expect a fast-paced, highly interactive experience that will help them master the most challenging aspects of the subject.

 Wet lab choices are on a first-come, first-served basis and honored once final payment is received.​
