Good Dressage Coach?

Sparklesgerl · 02-20-2006, 10:47 PM

I was wondering if any of my fellow Albertan Horsetopians would be able to help me find a good dressage coach around Calgary? I'm not looking to compete or anything, but I do want to take some lessons this spring and summer. I don't have my own horse and can't to afford to lease one, so I'd need to have access to a lesson horse - or a free lease. I've done a bit of research, but I don't know very many horse people down here or very many of the smaller barns. Any advice would be appreciated!! I'm so excited, I can't wait to start riding again!!

Sorry, I don't know any Calgary area dressage coaches, but check out the Alberta Dressage Website:
http://www.albertadressage.com/eaada/eaindex.htm

There may be info there for you. Under the clinics tab there are a few weblinks to Calgary Dressage barns. Evergreen was one that I saw had lesson horses.

Good luck on your search!
