Clinic Feedback

Paul Wardell Clinic at Bangalow, near Ballina, NSW – 16th and 17th July, 2016:

… Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend in Bangalow. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and took away some great skills to work with their horses. Paul you asked what I got out of it and why was it different to other training clinics I have been to. I always come away with extra skills to work with. Being consistent with utilising them is another thing with me. I do get upset sometimes as I feel that my horse is getting the better of me, but I am determined to make him work for the both of us. He is a lovely horse and I am very fond of him. Paul – you’re kind, polite, intuitive, humble and make it easy for people to relax. You take the time to explain the training method and how this will benefit you and the horse. Everyone gets the opportunity to participate and stay active. Having Brittany is such a bonus. Brittany – You have a maturity beyond your years and a professional approach to the task at hand, dealing with different horses, people’s emotions is not easy for anyone. Your impeccable riding, attitude and beautiful personality is an inspiration to the younger riders. You show them, that if you want something so bad, work hard and you can succeed. Thanks again and can’t wait to see you at Bangalow for another clinic.

… Thank you Paul for an excellent clinic, we got through so much and took away excellent skills to work with our horses. Softness, flexion, preparation, consistency are a few that coe to mind. Thank you Brittany for joining Paul at the clinic and helping rider on a one on one basis, focusing on individual issues. Look forward to planning the next clinic.

… Thank you Paul and Brittany for a very informative and most enjoyable clinic. All participants looking forward to another one in in the New Year.

… Thank you so much for such a fantastic weekend!!

… Was a wonderful weekend, thank you to everyone who came and thank you especially to Paul and Brittany.

… Thank you for a very successful wonderful weekend – love the ‘stories’ and hearing of all your experiences. Brittany you are a little gem and a “beautiful” rider, such a pleasure to watch – your expertise and generosity in riding the horses was a fantastic extra bonus for us all, a special thank you. Everyone has been full of accolades for you both. The improvement in horse and rider is confirmation of your ability to tutor, train, encourage and inspire.

We will look forward to another clinic in the near future.


Horsemanship Clinic at Silverthorn – 2nd and 3rd July, 2016:

… Home safe from an amazing Silverthorn Clinic. I learned so much over the two days and improved out of sight, also met some amazing new friends. Can’t recommend this clinic enough and the hospitality is fantastic. Thanks Paul, Julie and Britt.

… It is a great weekend of learning, great conversations and new friends. Love Silverthorn clinic

… Thank you Paul, Julie and Bittany for a wonderful weekend. I loved it.

… Like to thank Paul Wardell of Silverthorn Stock Horse Stud for the super job he did with our breaker. Our daughter had an absolute ball when she rode him today. Newcomer 2017 can’t wait.


Horsemanship clinic at Riding for the Disabled Complex, Raymond Terrace - 14th July, 2012

... "We would like to thank you for a great weekend - we loved it and learned a lot."

... "I just want to say thank you for another great weekend. Although a bit on the chilly side it was great to catch up again and refresh old skills from previous clinics and pick up some new tips. It was great to also have Kylie and Carolyn for extra tips in their sport. Every time I come to your place I am made to feel so welcome and my horse and my ability is not judged. You are so good at teaching skills that I can achieve at home after I leave and are explained well. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart."

... "Thanks again for your wonderful hospitality and pearls of wisdom."


Confidence Building Clinic at RDA, Raymond Terrace - 6th May

... "I just wanted to thank you for an outstanding clinic last Sunday. I have been to a few since I bought my float but none compared to yours. The improvement in my attitude and confidence from days beginning to end is inconceivable. I loved your ability to get riders to relax and to cater for differing levels. Paul you have the rare gift of being able to engage everyone in the conversation and to value their opinion. So much more beneficial than mere constructive criticism. Julie you mentioned if I got one thing from the day it would be worth it - I am happy to tell you I got a lot more than that. I have gained understanding and that will influence everything I do with my horse from now on. Thanks again and I hope to get the opportunity to work with you again."

... "thank you for all your help at the clinic last Sunday. I went into that arena a nervous wreck but came out feeling like I was a rider again. Not a bad result for one day’s instruction! You were great taking me back to basics and helping me relax so the horse could. I haven’t mastered collection yet but I sure have a better understanding of it and how to achieve it. I also think I’m beginning to feel what lightness and softness mean."

... "I just wanted to say thank you very much for a wonderful day on Sunday. I learnt to much and had a wonderful time."

"Another fantastic weekend at your place and so another very big thank you for your hospitality and generosity is in order! We both had a great time and it was very exciting to join in with our own Silverthorn horses this time. We continue to learn new skills and to attempt improve on what we\'ve learnt previously and apply this to our current horses. Brit, April, Lizzie, Mick and Tiff were all so kind, helpful and patient, instructing in the usual thoughtful Silverthorn way, but of course, they have all learnt from the best, Thank you Paul! Everyone was encouraged and catered for no matter what level or interest they had. So once again, a successful school! The food and company we lovely as usual, not to mention the cosy beds!

Horsemanship Clinic - 29th and 30th October, 2011

"I\'m so grateful to have the experience of attending your clinic. I learnt so much and I\'m very keen for the next."

"I just wanted to send you an email to say a huge thank you again for the great weekend. I was so skeptical due to never doing a clinic like this before and recently having issues with my mare made me push to get help. I was so impressed by what you do. The small group really appealed to me being nervous and not knowing what to expect. I was also surprised how well you managed so many different people with different abilities and disciplines. Even standing to wait our turn was great as I was able to watch Paul, Brit, April and Joe help the others with problems with their horses. Problems I have had in the past and now and I was able to learn techniques to fix them. It was great that what Paul had showed me was able to be practiced more under the supervision of Brit and crew. The food was amazing and so was the atmosphere. I will certainly be doing more clinics in the future."

"I just wanted to thank you both so much for an incredible weekend. I had so much fun and learnt so much. Fly has been going really well so far since being home – I have ridden him every day since returning and he hasn’t put a foot wrong and has been a pleasure to ride. Thank you for your hospitality and knowledge. Looking forward to doing some more clinics with you both in the future."

"Thank you both for a fantastic clinic, Greg and I had a good time and I learnt so much, I am looking forward to putting those skills into practice."

"Just wanted to say thank you for a rewarding and fun day on Saturday, Grayce loves coming there, your hospitality and warmth is fantastic, hope to see you in December if not after the new year."

Thank you so much for the awesome weekend I have learnt so much, Paul has the ability to get all his knowledge across so easily and so kindly. Julie thank you for all your loving care and great food Iam sure I have gained a few pounds ha.Thanks to the team Brit, Joe and April you are all great to be around and learn from, lastly thank you to Girl she is one of the best mares I have been lucky to ride I feel I have ridden her forever, what an opportunity thank you so much.
