This boot camp is for established students (or visitors - contact us for haul-in/stalling rates for your own personal horse!) riding at least at Intro level dressage, and includes lessons in show grooming, dressage test tips, and developing a warmup routine. Riders will be encouraged (but not required) to then ride in Sunday's dressage show, so that they can implement all of their new skills and tools! This is an excellent way to prepare for the April 25th Woodbine show! Open to all ages.

We will even have various Equestrian Team alumni visiting to share their own personal tips and stories. This seminar is mandatory for students participating in 2015 equestrian team, and highly recommended for students interested in futures seasons of equestrian team.

We will go over the benefits of membership with each organization, as well as the organization's various services, outreach and literature.
