    2010 Seminars and Clinics

    For information for the May 8-9th 2010 Endurance Training Ride: please click here

    These seminars will be for serious (and wannabe serious!) endurance riders featuring information on how to condition/train, what equipment to use, what to expect when going to a ride, plus offer plenty of opportunity to discuss the many aspects/tips/strategies involved the sport of endurance riding.

    Please note: Clinic rides are NOT stroll-along ambling pleasure-type rides. They are conditioning ride for endurance training. As such, horses must be fit and to go at an endurance pace, and MUST be shod on all four hooves. Riders who wish to use hoof boots must receive prior approval due to the propensity of boots to come loose/twist/fall off easily and/or become lost, etc which may impede or interrupt the flow of the conditioning ride for everyone.

    For information for the July 24-25th 2010 Ride and Tie Clinic Weekend: please click here
