    Cavaletti Clinic with Sarah Fulton-Smith
    Sarah introduces cavaletti as a gymnastic tool to incorporate into your dressage program whether you are a beginner or an upper level rider. We will cover everything from the basics of spacing and heights to introducing cavaletti to a horse for the first time and advanced exercises to improve test movements. 
    Sarah is an FEI rider, trainer, and instructor. She is also a breeder of dressage horses and is passionate about the gradual and correct development of our equine athletes utilizing many types of cross training to build a healthy mind, body, and relationship between horse and rider, such as groundwork, liberty work, long lining, trail riding, jumping, and cavaletti. 

    Long-Lining Clinic with Anthony Schmitz
    Training/Instruction in the true Classical Principles of Dressage. Anthony Schmitz, Bereiter, has 40 years experience riding, training, instructing and showing through
    FEI. Being originally from the Netherlands, he has extensive training by some of the Masters in Europe. He utilizes the longe line, long-lines, cavalletti, trail outings and arena riding to develop the correct musculature of each horse. Using the bio-
    mechanical movements of the horse riding patterns and exercises to teach the horse to go forward. This type of riding releases endorphins that bring pleasure to the horse while he gains strength and great confidence in himself. He teaches his students in much the same way through using exercises that develop core muscles, strong legs, an effective seat, correct timing and application of the aids and learning to ride with soft rein contact. Anthony is a compassionate, energetic, enthusiastic and
    effective teacher whose goal is simply to pass on all that he has learned and to watch his students and their horses progress to meet their goals and go on to surpass them.
