Educational Events
Jenny and Azaela - Ft. Sam Dressage Show
The Alamo Dressage Association understands the need for continuing education
for their members. We are in the process of selectively planning new and
upcoming events for our members.
Upcoming Educational Events
The ADA Board of Directors has authorized the organization of a number of
subsidized Clinics to be taught by ADA professionals who have supported the
ADA Free Christmas Clinics during the past two years!
The ADA will subsidize one half of the regular hourly rate of the instructors
for each ADA member that participates. This gives the ADA rider a grand
opportunity to receive expert instruction at a great price!
The designated instructors are Richard Howard, Mary Rose, Eva Oldenbroeck,
Susan Hancock, Reinhard Dorsch and Wolfgang May. Richard has already
conducted his clinic, especially designed for juniors, last month at the
Stones' stables. But the rest of these fine instructors are available, so
take advantage of the ADA's gift to you, and sharpen your riding skills!
************************
The next ADA Subsidized Clinic will be at the Blue Creek Ranch, Kathy
Lubianski's place near Seguin, on 18 April, with Wolfgang May as the
instructor.
Lessons will be $45 for 45 minutes. You must be a member of ADA to receive
the reduced rate. You may join ADA prior to the clinic and be eligible to
ride at the reduced rate. The cost for non-ADA members is $70 per lesson.
Wolfgang recently relocated to Texas. His very impressive biography and other
information can be found at his website: www.wolfgangmaydressage.com
Please send an email to Kathy at kjltx@att.net if you would like to
participate.
There is paperwork to file with ADA prior to the clinic, so the sooner the
better.
If you need an ADA membership application, go to www.alamodressage.org.
