Northland Dressage

What a great loss!

We will remember him as an extraordinary horse

Works every time

A healthy dose of Halloween disgust from your annoyed barn cats

Victor Sevilla, who takes exceptional care of our horses at Pine Hill, and jockeys on the weekends had a nasty tumble with a horse during a race today. Please help if you can, his girlfriend has installed a go fund me.

To feel correct contact "Imagine a fishing line. When the horse is behind the hand or empty, the contact feels like the fishing line is just hanging on the... water [image on left], but once you get the horse pushing into the bit, the contact you feel is like a draw on your back, elbows, forearm and handjust like a fish taking the line [image on right]."

The fine, correct connection, - meaning the active hindquarters over the swinging back through the trusting and supple poll is not the beginning, but rather the result of correct riding.

That’s why we have a very special Buckey brush

First on line dressage show judging in the books. Definitely a new experience, but lots of fun too. Mark found out, he will never scribe again in his life,- ever! LOL Next show by NDA in a few weeks!

Diederik’s owner Sheila came to visit today, to wish studmuffin a happy 19th birthday. She also was able to watch Linda navigate him through yet another successful cyber lesson with Betsy Steiner. We used my new Pixem System for the first time, and it worked great!

Second cyber lesson with Betsy Steiner. This time some clients of mine took the opportunity to lesson as well, and liked it just as much as I do. Next session in a few weeks, stay tuned!

I can’t begin to express how heavy this had weighed on me the past few days. I am so (cautiously) relieved and happy for Juanito and the entire lovely Matute family. Hoping for continuing recovery and keeping them in our thoughts!

First cyber/tele lesson with Betsy Steiner in the books. How awesome, that we have this techno available. Contact me if you’re interested in setting up a lesson with Betsy, or audit one of ours. Special thanks to Becky McMillin, for being my camera operator!
