Events & Clinics for 2010?

[Lesley from Kent (Floydsmum)]

Hi All,

Now I'm stabled on a fab yard with excellent facilities and a fab YO who also wants to run some events (in NW Kent area), I'm going to be putting together a list of events and clinics for 2010. What sort of things would interest people? On my list so far:

* Weekend Centered Riding Clinic (either with Lucile Bump Level IV Instructor from USA and/or Lisa Pritchard, Level II Instructor from Cheshire)

* Richard Maxwell Clinic

* Suzanne Marshall (BHSAI RWYM Coach & RA) Clinics (Ridden & Ground Work)

* Have a Go Shows (jumping, dressage and very small one day event type stuff for novices)

* Spook busting weekends

* Weekend Adult camp

If we run these in Spring / Summer there'll be stables free for people to bring their horses and ponies as ours live out as soon as the weather is warm & dry enough and there's room for some tents and lorries for humans to sleep in.

Anything else?

Le Trec?

Training Ride (i.e. endurance-type thing?).

All sounds good. Depending on finances, could be up for something. I've got Suzanne coming out to help with Maj in a couple of weeks, so might want to continue work with her.

All sound great Lesley, would love a camp with some jumping for wimps (that's me being the wimp not Simba) and pony club games for a bit of fun!

Horse Owners Massage Course? Am currently updating my website to improve information for this, but basically it's a 1-day course teaching you a basic massage routine to use with your own horse - great for building a bond / maintaining good health / rehab from injury / reducing tension and tenderness / improving performance...

Drop me an email ([e-mail]) if you'd like more info.

That sounds good Sue! If you'd be interested in travelling to deepest, darkest Kent, I know a lot of endurance riders who'd be interested in doing this.

[Lesley from Kent (Floydsmum)]

Defo adding Sue's massage course to my list! Will be in touch, thanks Sue.

Now, does anyone know who (apart from Kelly who'd I'd LOVE to come and teach us) can come and do some TREC training with us

[Sue Palmer]

Happy to travel anywhere - look forward to hearing from you Lesley!
