About the event
Gold Medalist Grand Prix rider, Riana Porter is often recognized for her beautiful movements and demonstration of the coveted harmony between horse and rider — but she knows it is the process, not the destination. As a trainer, coach, and instructor, she teaches the patient approach of listening and observing, teaching riders how to have The Conversation:
- Focus on fluid, yet clear communication in the language you and your horse learn
- Precise timing of applied pressure and release to allow the horse — and rider — to relax into mutually fulfilling work
- Patience to create strong correct basics — even while addressing the most complicated movements
Registration/Payment by Jan 10th: Riders $100 (+$10 for late entry), Active Auditors $10
