This is one of the last opportunities in Sweden to learn directly from Leslie and to watch work with horses and riders.
Attendees at this upcoming short course will learn the "feel & release" approach horse handling and riding as taught to her by her late mentor, Bill Dorrance (1906 - 1999) from Salinas, California.
Leslie specializes in teaching students how to ride well and maintain balance at speed and on a variety of terrain. She helps her students to better understand and refine their "pressure and release" and "feel and release" skills, and to know when to use which technique for the best results in different situations and with different horses.
Leslie will coach all attendees in the art of correctly "reading" (understanding) a horse in many difference circumstances. She will share her approaches to raising hoof care standards, and establishing / maintaining correct bio-mechanics that lead to and support soundness without drugs.
Taken together, the goals of this course will be achieved through the combination of demonstration, minimum 14 hours of hands-on practice in private coaching and group learning sessions.
Riders and spectators will all benefit from the in-depth discussions that arise from the frequent Q & A sessions (Question and Answer sessions) throughout the day.
