Centered Riding featured at
Rhodes River Ranch

Elaine Meredith Steele, Level III Centered Riding® Clinician, comes to Arlington WA for week-ends of Centered Riding® instruction for riders of all ages, abilities and disciplines. 

December 10 - 12, 2004
September 24 - 26, 2004
July 23-25, 2004
May 7 - 9, 2004

Schedule one lesson, or three, or more.  Make a group and design your own mini-clinic. Then join us for a "Sunday Funday: Playtime" finale. Come to do something more than ride around in circles in the arena; put those new skills to work playing games or learning drill team formations such as double lines, pinwheels and tight turns (a skill that helps one when negotiating those narrow mountain trails). As one participant commented: "It's a hoot, you feel so accomplished afterwards!"

Centered Riding® is a body centered approach that will deepen your understanding and enjoyment of the horse and rider partnership. And there is no better place for this Centered Riding® workshop than the beautiful surroundings of Rhodes River Ranch. The sessions will take place in the ranch's spacious indoor arena. For information call (360) 474-8313, and ask for Chris, Tammy or Jean or email info@rhodesriverranch.com.

Wow! This was so fun! We had bluegrass to wake us up and Yanni to smooth us out, all to the delight of the riders and horses. Talk about horse and rider improvement over a short time. Thank you, Phil, for running the sound system.
