Dale Irwin coming to Hillside!

Keep Easter long weekend open, as I have confirmed that Dale Irwin will be coming to teach a three day clinic the last weekend in March. Dale is a top level eventing and dressage coach. Two years ago I rode Brie in a clinic with him and really appreciated his teaching style and ideas. I feel that his international level experience gives him the depth needed to be able to quickly assess issues, and give us the tools to progress.

(don't confuse Dale Irwin with Chris Irwin the "Natural Horsemanship" trainer)

The clinic will be available for riders to ride in two or three days of the clinic. Single days will only be available if time allows. Friday will be flat work/dressage, and Saturday/Sunday can be either flat or jumping.

This clinic is open to anyone, and even if you don't want to ride in it, you will likely learn a fair bit by watching. I am planning to jump Izzy in the clinic, so could be entertaining!

He is good at teaching all levels of riders and riders.

Rates still to be determined. If anyone is interested in subsidizing the clinic by helping with morning barn chores during the clinic OR by offering to host Dale for the weekend, please let me know!
