About Our Clinics
Fundamentals Clinic. Sharon has coached
families and generations of riders.
Enhance your skills, confidence and efficiency at a Sharon Camarillo Performance Horsemanship Clinic. We are dedicated to making better horses, one rider at a time.
Our goal is to offer a comprehensive program that will help you evaluate your performance outcomes and leave you with a plan personally designed to take you to the next level in your riding, training and barrel racing competition. Learning and developing skills is a life-long process and an individual journey for each of you. As such, we offer two types of barrel racing two-day clinics with individual coaching and direction that may be repeated as often as desired:
Our clinics promote the “whole horse” philosophy, which includes soundness, nutrition, conditioning and training. We introduce quality equipment to maximize your ability to communicate with your horse for optimal training and performance. Time is allocated to assure that all questions are addressed, including evaluation of your existing tack and training equipment.
Individual coaching makes the clinics valuable
to anyone at any level of experience.
The program includes The A.R.T. of Barrel Racing, which breaks the barrel racing pattern into the approach, rate and turn elements necessary to establish efficient and consistent performance. To enhance efficiency, riders are introduced to skill drills and technical horsemanship techniques for precise and balanced positioning of both horse and rider. The program is designed to reinforce foundation horsemanship at all skill levels. Supervised exercises are designed to reinforce consistent use of the rider’s hands, seat, and legs to gain connection and improve communication between horse and rider.

Resource Guide
To maximize each student’s investment
our two-day clinics are limited to 12 riders. Instructors assist me, so I have ample time to work with and evaluate each horse and rider. Students receive a very professional Performance Horsemanship Resource Guide designed for long-lasting reference. There is ample room in the Resource Guide to continue to file information that you may print from this website and obtain from other sources.
Clinic prices may vary depending upon
the sponsor and location of the clinic.
Auditors and spectators are welcome
for a minimal charge.
