Welcome Home, Diego!

0803_04

Professional Clinician Diego Gaona is back at the Downunder Horsemanship Ranch busy training horses and teaching lessons. The standout horseman received his Professional Certification in 2015, and while he continued to help horsemen reach their goals with the Method, he also concentrated on training reining horses.

“When Diego told me that he wanted to focus more on the Method and get more involved with our customers, I was excited to welcome him back to the ranch,” Clinton says. “He’s training several of his personal reiners as well as teaching lessons and taking in Academy Horses.”

As a Professional Clinician, Diego is available to teach lessons and clinics and train horses covering all levels and aspects of the Method from Fundamentals through Advanced and including more specialized topics such as Colt Starting and Trick Training.

“Diego is an extremely talented hand and a great instructor. He’s a little more on the quieter side and is very patient, which makes him phenomenal at helping people with confidence issues,” Clinton says. “Plus, he’s fluent in Spanish, which appeals to a lot of our customers.”
