Winter Gymnastic Classes, 12/29/2011
SIGN UP SHEET is now posted on the board.
Winter Gymnastic Class. This is an additional class offered over and above the weekly lesson. This class is for the serious rider who wants more time in the saddle and more experience. The class is open to all students who are interested. The cost is $15.00 if you own your own horse and $20.00 if you use a lesson horse. The class is approximately two hours long. Start time 3:00 pm. We work on additional flat work and jumping gymnastic lines. Beginner students will be working more on flat work for jumping.
These classes will be held every Saturday afternoon starting January 7th and running until March 31st at 3:00 pm It is important that if you start this program that you attend every date available.
Please sign up as early as possible to participate in the Gymnastic Classes. I need to have some kind of idea as some of the school horses are used by several students. Come see me if you are not sure where what level you should be signed up at. I will try to make this happen for everyone.
My gift to each student this year is one free Gymnastic Class. You choose what lesson you want free. Payments are due the day of the lesson and place your payment in the moneybox.
