We had another wonderful Quantum Weekend at the Cloverfern Equestrian Center where we held Level 1 Primary and Level 1 Secondary Lessons. It was fantastic to see so many new students out there building thier confidence with their horses and learning all about their basic skills and purpose plays. For the Level 1 Secondary group it was all about riding and learning about rein positions, both at a standstill and while moving along. This gave the morning group a chance to see where all their preperation was leading, especially when it came to getting life up tranisions and having their horses follow their focus.

Ta-Dah's from the Weekend:

Getting some softness on Manny's stiff side
