This past weekend I was able to attend an Outside the Turn clinic. To say I enjoyed myself would be an understatement. The words “I can’t” were NOT allowed. Jenn Zeller taught us ways to stack the deck in our favor and to go into every situation with plan A,B, and C. I don’t believe we stop to pet our horses to reward the try in them enough, this past weekend I gave Ginger the love she deserves for trying so hard for me. The first night we made a “rodeo run” so Jenn could see where all of our levels were at. Then we went to work. I added 4 drills to my workout routine and finally came up with a warmup routine at races that has purpose. The first video was Friday night. It wasn’t pretty, but that’s the whole purpose of a clinic. The second video was my final “rodeo run” for the weekend. Jenn Zeller had me make adjustments and they proved to be extremely beneficial. All of this being said, if you have the chance to attend this clinic, sign up! I now know I deserve to enter every race I attend.

I just wanted to share with all of you…. I sent my 11 year old daughter, Kendall, to a clinic of Jenn Zeller this weekend. My daughter has been riding for a few years, but just started competing this summer. I am a first generation rodeo mama new to all this rodeo/barrel racing world. I share that because my box of tools is thin to non-existent and it’s a very intimidating sport to step into inexperienced. My daughter came home and spilled all the details, step by step, of the clinic. I was worried she wouldn’t remember the drills correctly or would interchange the steps of a drill, but she could definitely handle it. The most key thing she said to me was, “Mom, if I didn’t understand what Jenn was trying to say, I just waited because then Jenn said the same thing 3 other ways with different words and I could understand what she was teaching us.” Our horse Kendall brought is fast, but not soft. After spending a few days learning how to work on softness, riding Jenn’s horse to learn what it should feel like to ride a soft horse, letting Jenn ride our horse to help the horse know what we are trying to communicate with her about getting soft, I can 100% say we have a plethora of skill, drills, and sharpened tools in our box to become successful. If you have ever thought about going to a clinic of Jenn’s, do it…. No matter the age. Not only will you gain a great experience, you will build a relationship with someone who wants you to be successful after the clinic. 10/10 experience.

I brought my 10 year old daughter to Jenn Zeller Outside the Turn clinic in Tennessee. It was amazing my daughter's confidence improved in the saddle and on the ground!! We loved her so much we bought a weanling and now have it in training/living with Jenn! Thank you for being so amazing!

I'm a competitor that started later in life, with a horse that's an underdog, and a disability. Jenn has given me tools that give me more condifidencw in myself and my horse. I'm happy to have a coach in my corner that makes me feel like they're invested in my success.

Although my horse and I didn’t necessarily have issues, I went to Jenn’s clinic to have more knowledge of how to make a good barrel horse, as well as controlling your mental game. I struggle with severe anxiety and that anxiety was getting felt by my horse. We came out of the clinic with a 2d time which we have never achieved. I got to take new skills to use in my future riding colts! I would go to every clinic Jenn does if I had all that money. I love her style of teaching, and makes sure you understand what she is teaching you. This woman is amazing, and really a role model for me
