One of the highlights of our Spring season was hosting a clinic with renowned horse show judge Shane Ledyard. He gave our riders invaluable insights into what judges look for in the show ring and worked closely with them to refine technique and improve form. It was an incredible opportunity for our athletes to deepen their understanding and elevate their performance.”Tiffany Taylor,
