Riding with Tik Maynard Case Studies: A Clinic Series

You don’t need a perfect plan—you need the tools to adapt in the moment. Every horse presents unique challenges, and every rider faces moments of doubt. How do you build trust? How do you refine timing? How do you create a horse that truly thinks, not just reacts?

Riding with Tik Maynard takes you inside unscripted training sessions with everyday riders, tackling challenges from groundwork to the saddle, trailer loading, and beyond. Through immersive storytelling and hands-on coaching, Tik builds trust, clarity, and responsiveness in both horse and rider.

Unlike rigid programs, Riding with Tik Maynard is adaptable and designed for riders at every level. Tik blends natural horsemanship, equine psychology, and competitive training to create confident, responsive horses that truly understand their job.
