At the first USDF open dressage show of the season for us (in Cheyenne, WY), Mimi’s 6 year old Hanoverian mare, Holeandra, was high score of the show with a 71.800%.

PRTC hosted another Amy Larson clinic May 29 & 30. Nine horses participated with 12 different horse/rider combinations. Most of the riders are showing up a level this year & are working on new skills. There was a common theme of straightness on a bending line especially related to beginning collection, walk/canter transitions & pirouette work. Amy also focused on teaching riders to control the horse’s hind legs with the seat & keeping the vertical line in the rider’s body to eliminate leaning in the horse on bending lines. We really appreciate her eye for detail. She always leaves us with much homework. We are looking for Amy to return for another clinic mid-July. There might be room for another rider or two. Contact us for more information. Auditors are always welcome at no charge. Come join us!

We received a great report from Sylvia, who purchased JC Selena from PRTC.  Selena is a lovely Half-Arab pinto mare with lots of experience. After just a couple months of riding together, Sylvia and Selena placed 3^rd in Beginning Level Tests B and C at their first dressage show in May. This was Sylvia’s very first horse show! They are aiming for Training Level by the end of the summer and having a great time together.
