Every rider has been told that the horse does all the work, but we know that isn't true. Riding is a sport, that takes physical strength, coordination, and balance.

This Saturday from 10 AM to 1 PM, we are offering a clinic that can help you learn what you need to do to improve your position. Come and learn how to solve your most challenging position issues in the saddle AND at home. Taught by Chelsea Zsigmondovics, the Fitness For Riding Clinic runs from 10 AM - 1 PM. All participants will do work on the ground and ride in a lesson focuses on position work.

**This clinic is for current clients of Fern Hollow Farm only, feel free to reach out to Chelsea at 360-774-1607 if you have any questions.
