Many of our students (and trainers!) have out-of-town holiday plans, so Lisa has scheduled time this week to squeeze in make-up lessons before the holiday craziness sets in. Lisa will be available on the following dates for the rest of the month: Thursday (12th), Saturday (14th), Sunday (15th), Tuesday (17th), and Thursday (19th), to make up for the two weeks she will be visiting family (21 December to 3 January). If you can’t make it out for a make-up lesson this week, schedule a ground school lesson with PK while Lisa is on vacation.

The Art of Classic Dressage Training
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.
