EXCITING NEWS!

Hello friends, I have exciting news! Later this month, I will be teaming up with Jo Bunny, yoga teacher and masseuse, for a full day of transformative instruction! Hosted by the Hampshire Country Riding Club, this clinic will help horses and riders connect like never before. I hope you can join us!

Partnership Through Body Awareness

A Clinic with Jo Bunny and Rachel Hackett
Presented by the Hampshire County Riding Club

Saturday, October 29th from 9-4
HCRC Grounds, Goshen, MA
Club members $125
Non-members $150



In this full-day clinic, riders will learn basic yoga techniques, as well as groundwork and mounted exercises, to enhance their partnership with their horses. Unlock your ability to move with your horse, and find balance together! No yoga experience is needed. Riders of any discipline are welcome!



           Space is limited to 10 participants, so register now by emailing lisekrieger@comcast.net


 
Breathing more freely and clearing the mind of distractions can help you feel more
relaxed and less tense while on the horse. By reducing physical and mental tension, we can give clearer aids and achieve greater freedom of motion. Learn to use your body and breath to inspire your horse!
