Spring Boot-Camp
Monday – Friday, March 12th – 16th
Winter will be over before we know it so it’s time to plan ahead for
the spring! This program will be hugely beneficial for those competing this
season or in the future but would also be appropriate for anyone who is very
committed to their riding. The dressage
lessons will be ½ hour semi-private lessons to maximize individual focus (+ 15
min. warm-up & cool down after).
Jumping lessons will be group classes and will be 1hr. Unmounted training sessions will be after
lunch daily, 1 hr in length. The camp will conclude with a mini-competition on
Friday at 2:00pm, parents/friends are welcome to come watch and cheer!
