Terry Ciotti Gallo Musical Freestyle Clinic and Seminar
We are pleased to announce that The Distinguished Rider will be joining us as a vendor on Saturday, April 13th! Come prepare for show season and shop a wide array of boots, apparel, accessories, and more.
Clinic description
The Do-Re-Mi’s of Freestyles is a three hour seminar that will take you on a step-by-step journey on how to find music that is right for your horse, how to plan effective choreography, and how to prepare for shows.
Following the lecture there will be mounted sessions, where the theories that are discussed in the seminar are put into practice. All mounted participants go through a tempo analysis, learn to ride to the beat of the music, and create choreography for one gait that is appropriate for their level. If you plan to ride and have a specific objective such as reviewing your current freestyle or listening to music you have already chosen, we will try to accommodate your request.
Auditors will be accepted and are encouraged to come! Day stalls will be available for riders.
