We had a fabulous turn out for lessons and our weekly Evening Ride on Thursday! Join us next week for a lovely evening at Hillside; the outdoor arena is lighted so we can ride during dusk and after dark. We always have a blast! Don’t forget, we also have online scheduling for lessons now: http://hillsidestables.appointy.com/ Check it out today!
“Contact” seems to be a mysterious, elusive term that is thrown around but rarely discussed. What is contact? How does one achieve contact with one’s horse? Gail Hoff-Carmona’s article, “Ask the Experts: Correct Dressage Contact” in Dressage Today offers some answers.
Dressage Today recently published a great article, The Art of Classic Dressage Training, by Dr. Josef Knipp. Knipp’s essay is a lovely essay reminder all riders, regardless of discipline, why we ride horses and what should be valued in every style of riding.
Hillside Stables now has online scheduling for lessons! Using our Appointy online calendar you can view available lessons times for your instructor and schedule your own lessons. As always, you may still schedule lessons via phone, text, or Facebook.
