USHJA Directory of Clinics


Education is one of the primary goals of the USHJA. Through the USHJA Clinics Program, many opportunities exist for our outstanding professionals and leaders in the industry to give back their experience and knowledge to all levels of equestrian participants. USHJA encourages hosts to offer a variety of educational clinics - from riding and horsemanship to legal advice for owners, trainers, managers and parents.




Current Clinic Specifications

  • Clinician must be an active USHJA member and in good standing.
  • USHJA requires proof of liability insurance only; listing USHJA as additional insured is no longer required.
