You definitely won't want to miss the ranch horse demonstration led by Michelle Reeser in the main arena! Here's a little bit of background on this speaker:
"Michelle Reeser is the owner/trainer at Forza Equine, a Northern California mobile training program that focuses on western performance disciplines including Reining and Ranch Riding. As a student at UC Davis, Michelle competed on the IHSA Western Team, taught beginner and intermediate lessons, summer camp, and worked as a barn supervisor, stall cleaner, and feeder. After completing her BS degree in Animal Science and Management, she found her career at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine as a licensed veterinary and pharmacy technician. Michelle continued to ride and train several of her own horses as a Non-Pro and sought help from local NRHA professionals to further her skills. Most recently, she has successfully competed in NRHA, WCRHA, AQHA, and WRHA events in reining and ranch riding. Michelle's love of teaching inspired her to fill a need in today's industry, sharing her knowledge with green and amateur riders in an accessible way, and helping them achieve their equestrian goals. Forza Equine focuses on important aspects of western horsemanship, from functional equitation to correct equine carriage."
