CLINIC FORMAT:
This 2-day clinic gives riders the opportunity to immerse themselves into their education and develop their skillsets through 3 private lessons. With 2 Theory components, this clinic offers thorough insight to both the practical and theoretical aspects of classical dressage, giving each participant a comprehensive, intensive, and inspiring clinic.
Rider Participants are encouraged to spectate all lessons as this is also a part of the education over the 2 days as horses and riders work through the specific work related to their combination.
What to Expect! Your lessons can vary in work from in hand training, lunging with precision and influence and of course riding, in riding sessions we can focus on rider position and the aids, how your horse functions with a rider, lateral exercises to develop posture and alignment of the horse. You can choose to do in hand, lunging or ridden sessions 🙂 We can also mix and match, start with some in hand and then ride etc.
Spectators are also invited to join. Questions welcomed.
