2024 Clinics

Education Chair, Madison Lee, and committee have been busy putting together an impressive education schedule for 2024! Read below what they have stirred up for us.

Gail Matheus Clinic 

Date TBA, Skylight Horse Park – Goshen, KY
(Alta Vista Farm as alternate location based on progress of arena update at Skylight) 

Gail is an FEI rider and USEF “R” judge in Western Dressage and is a USDF L* graduate with distinction, pursuing her “r”. She is the WDAA Director of Judge’s and Member Education and also runs the Spotlight Horse Shows series of WDAA-recognized online shows.  

Participants are welcome to ride either English or western dressage, or to bring their young horses for tips on presenting sport horses in hand.  

Plan to stay for lunch on Saturday to hear Gail’s tips on best practices for recording rides for online showing.

Please note, Gail will be judging the 2024 WDAA World Show September 18-22. As this clinic is within the 30-day window of that event, World Show entrants are welcome to audit but should not participate. 

What riders say about Gail:

“Gail is an expert at not allowing me to get ahead of myself and I do love that because I’m very good at making things way too complicated!!!”

“Gail is a very constructive, enthusiastic, talented person.”

“Because of Gail’s patience, the depth of her expertise, and ability to balance both my horse’s training and nutritional needs with my own, phenomenal positive progress in horsemanship has occurred. As I prepare for my first recognized horse show, I know I am ready, willing, and able to take my riding expertise and my horse to the next level.”
