Spring break is here, although it was pretty chilly today and the wind was intense! The first half of the semester just flew by! The second half is likely to do the same. The weekend after the students return to school is our final IDA show of the regular season, a Bernie Traurig clinic for the hunter seat riders and an Admissions Open House.
There will be more about the IDA show and open house later, but first let’s talk about the clinic. We are so blessed at St. Andrews Equestrian to have the opportunity to learn from horsemen of Bernie’s caliber. Bernie has represented the United States in show jumping, dressage and eventing – an amazing accomplishment! He is an inductee of the National Show Hunter Hall of Fame and in 2010 was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award from the California Professional Horsemen’s Association. Bernie currently serves as the associate Chef d’Equip for the West Coast reporting to the USEF Chef d’Equipe George Morris.
Bernie learned from master horsemen all over the world and he now gives back with clinics, coaching and training. He is the founder of Equestriancoach.com which strives to provide higher education for equestrians regardless of their background, ability or location. The site offers instructional videos and training advice from the best riders and trainers in the United States. Best of all he is coming to the Burg in less than two weeks to share his knowledge with our students! Very exciting!
