Master Showmanship Academy:

Time of Group Calls:

Every Friday starting January 16th and going until February 27th (times may change)

  • 5pm PST/ 8pm EST

Structure of Course and draft of possible information to be covered:

Each week we will meet via zoom and watch videos on the training topics that week. We may or may not cover the expected material outlined below. We will watch the trainings and discuss application; I will answer questions and receive feedback on the videos and information being shared. As the ‘beta group’ this is the first class ever of Master Showmanship Academy. If you join, you will be one of the first students ever, will receive a huge discount, and the catch is that you will be helping me to make it relevant and valuable for students for years to come.

Week One:

  • Walking: mastering the lamb’s look on the move
  • Transitions: finesse and switching sides and positions smoothly
  • The first impression: dialing in those critical early moments
  • Eye contact: natural style, intensity and maintaining the look

Week Two:

  • Bracing: getting a real drive, building lasting endurance, lifting into place and training the brace – all from a gentler approach without the roughness
  • Styles: hand holds, bracing, and general show ring style

Week Three:

  • Setting up: mastering the six-second-set, getting the set right and staying set
  • Showing to your lamb’s advantage: exemplifying strengths and minimizing flaws
