What to Expect
Clinics are limited to 8–12 participants to allow for direct coaching and individual attention. Each day begins with a morning meeting without horses, where Jake discusses the methods, exercises, and goals for the day and answers any participant questions. Groundwork sessions are held first each morning, followed by riding sessions in the afternoon.
Every clinic is unique, and the schedule, exercises, and topics covered may be adjusted to best meet the needs of the horses and riders in attendance.

Mustang Magic
Cheer on Jake, as he competes in the 2027 Mustang Magic!
Mustang Magic is an invitation-only equestrian competition held annually in January at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo that showcases the incredible trainability of wild horses. Professional trainers from across the United States are given roughly 120 days to gentle and train a completely untouched wild mustang managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). During the event, horse-and-rider pairs compete in handling, trail maneuvers, and a high-energy freestyle routine set to music to demonstrate the animal's transformation. The competition ultimately serves to promote wild horse adoption, culminating in a public auction where these newly trained mustangs are placed into permanent, loving homes.
