    Clinic with Kathy Rowse, dressage trainer, clinician, and USEF "S" judge

    As a USEF “S” Judge for 20 years and having earned her USDF Bronze, Silver, and Gold Medals in competition through Grand Prix, Kathy is able to translate her knowledge to any horse/rider combination and has earned a sterling reputation as a pragmatic clinician who enjoys working with any horse. She teaches “fair and balanced” riding principles, and is able to hone in on correct rider position and use of the aids via her background as a certified personal trainer and practitioner of Pilates. Lastly, Kathy is able to provide information and exercises for the rider that can be reproduced long after the clinic is over.

    Please contact Abigail Trinkle at 518 766 2678 or atrinkle05@yahoo.com with any questions.

    Entries for this non-ENYDCTA event can be made on the Larkin’ Hill website
