What Riders are Saying About our Recent Events

Just wanted to write a quick note of thanks. I thought the clinic was fantastic, and appreciated being able to go at the beginning. It was probably better for me to get a chance to ride in the regulation arena. Everyone was just so nice. I can’t wait to get the video. How amazing to have that chance to (get) one done. So Thank You so very much.

2024 Ride-A-Test Clinic

Holding the Ride-A-Test the day before the show is a great idea. It gives horses & riders a chance to get accustomed to the arena and surroundings before the Show. And the comments from the Ride-A-Test judge will be fresh in riders’ minds for Tests the next day.

2024 Ride-A-Test Clinic

Omg, the judge was fantastic! Great comments that made sense and I could actually implement for my rides!
Would love to take a clinic from her.
