Winter Theory Series with Jana Meyer
Mondays, March 4th and March 18th
Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Jana's House
Fee: $35 per person per session
Let's use these dark, cold winter evenings to learn about the theory and science behind horse care, equine health and effective riding. We have put together three evenings with specific topics geared for horse owners, new riders or for those who might wish to prepare for a Knapamerki (riding badge) test. While there won't be any riding or ground work during these clinics, we hope to share important and interesting information to guide you as you continue on your equestrian journey.
