Our latest clinic "Educate Your Eye" was a huge success, with far more than the expected number of attendees. Mostly dressage riders, youth and adult amateur, but also some judges and judges in training were in the audience.
Visiting UK List 1 Dressage Judge Mary-Anne Horn held the audience enthralled as she explained what dressage judges are looking for;
- she described the scales of training
- she explained what judges expect at the different levels of dressage test, referencing back to the scales of training
Several generous riders rode a variety of levels of test and Mary-Ann scored the test and then explained to the crowd what scores she had given and why.
Mary-Ann picked one area for improvement with most of the demonstration riders and coached them through some exercises. At the conclusion of a few minutes of exercise under her watchful eye the riders all made pronounced improvements!
At the conclusion of the event the enthusiastic audience had been entertained and educated.
Thank you Mary-Ann and bravo to all our demonstration riders!
