EAST HILL FARM ADULT HORSEMANSHIP WEEK

April 26 through April 30, 2010   

    

Update:  Our week is filled.  If you wish to be added to the waiting list, send in your application and we will notify you if a space becomes available.  Thanks to all the enthusiastic participants who got their applications in right away!

 

We are happy to announce the dates and the format for Adult Horsemanship week!  Get your vacation dates set so that you can join in on all the fun and education that we are going to have.  Ruth and her crew will be home the week before "camp" to be the key note speaker for the Everything Equine event on the 24th and 25th of April at the Champlain Valley Expo.

 

Since Ruth will be home, we will be able to offer two options for participants this year as we realize that everyone has individual wants and needs.  This year, Ruth, Kathie, Jeannette, Melissa and Meghan will all be an essential part of the week’s entertainment and EDUCATION!  There will also be a surprise guest giving us all inspiration and motivation!   There will be talks, demos and a choice to ride with Ruth as well as individual position analysis on her Equicizer, Rocky.  Upon registration, you will be able to customize your week of riding, training and learning. 

 

Lessons-   Depending on which option you choose, you will enjoy a minimum of one daily lesson that is focused on your own individual goals.  Whatever your goals are, we can help you attain them.  Whether it’s basic riding skills, preparing for a dressage test, riding outdoors, learning to count your flying changes, preparing to move up a level for the show season, or making a freestyle, we can help.  

 

Videos-   We will video as many of the lessons as possible, and review them in the evenings. You will receive a video of your rides.

 

Position Analysis-   All participants will receive a half hour position analysis from Ruth on her Equicizer Rocky.  You will receive a video of your analysis.  Every single person who has ever had a lesson on Rocky has had major revelations about their own position and contact. Learn more about Rocky here..  http://www.ruthhoganpoulsen.com/video.html.

 

Educational Programs and Evening Entertainment-   We will have educational programs in the evening with question and answer sessions, training videos, and videos of inspirational world class dressage competitors.  Classical dressage theories and other topics will be discussed.

 

Mini Clinics and Help Sessions-   We found from last year everyone wanted more mini clinics about topics such as braiding, clipping, bandaging, grooming, heath care and whatever else you want to learn about.

 

Food-   Just ask anyone who has ever been to Adult Horsemanship week.  It does not get any better.  Each evening wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served while talking about the day.  Dinner is never better between the cooking of the Moultons, Poulsens, and Hogans.  If you don't come for the riding, come for the food!
