IL: Horseless Introduction to Working Equitation

Join us for a fun day to learn about the sport of Working Equitation. We will discuss all four phases of the sport including as the building blocks.
The primary focus of the day will be spent reviewing the requirements for the obstacle portions of the sport – the Ease of Handling trial and the speed trial. We will walk through each obstacle and discuss what the judges are looking for and training ideas to help you get started in the sport. After all obstacles are reviewed we will have participants do an actual course walk where we will discuss strategy and how it differs between Ease of Handling and Speed.
Working Equitation is for everyone – all rider levels, all breeds, and all disciplines. All you need is the desire to learn and a little commitment. And don’t let speed phase scare you away – only Levels 2 and above are required to do speed.
Clinic is taught by Karen and Mike of KarMik Acres. Karen is an accredited Judge and Technical delegate. Both Karen and Mike hold multiple Year End Championships in Levels 1-5.
Cost for the clinic is only $50.
Space is limited so pre-registration is required. Bring a lunch and refreshments.
