I’m excited to welcome Mary Wanless back to Mad River Stables LLC on May 23, 24, 25th. If you don’t know her, Mary is a total wiz at all things rider biomechanics. She has an incredible eye and way of explaining things that create real lasting change. Her clinics are especially geared well toward auditing. Please consider joining us for any or all days of the clinic! Space is somewhat limited so please reach out soon to ensure an auditing spot.
The rider spots are full but do let me know if you’d like to be added to the waitlist.

Woohoo! Can’t wait to ride on it!

Mad River Stables LLC Mollie Bachner Dressage LLC installed RecycleBalls Green Gold into their indoor in Moretown, Vermont!

The Green Gold added lots of amazing features to the already great existing footing. After the install the footing was fluffier, perfect for impact support for all classes of horses, and it didn’t add more depth!

We look forward to hearing all the positive feedback!
