Description

This class will ride four hours a week. Three hours will be structured lessons. The other hour will be either a self-directed training session or an additional structured lesson. Lecture material may also be included. This course is designed for the serious advanced rider with aspirations toward the show ring in the hunter, jumper and equitation divisions. Basic schooling concepts, flatwork and refinement of position will be stressed. Riders will negotiate different types of courses derived from the hunter, jumper and equitation rings. Riders will also experience riding horses of different levels ranging from "very green" to “extremely well-schooled." Prerequisite: permission of instructor. Four mounted hours per week. Two semester hours. May be repeated for credit.
