Jackie and Diana went to the “Light Hands Horsemanship” Clinic at Art Perry’s gorgeous Intrepid Morgan Farm in Santa Ynez, CA.   Sunday, May 6th was a beautiful day on California’s central coast. 

 In the morning Lester Buckley demonstrated several aspects of warming up the horse before a training session and also extolled the benefits of cross training for horses.  Lester is involved not only with training cutting horses but also rides upper level dressage. 

In the afternoon Eitan Beth-Halachmy of  “Cowboy Dressage”  fame rode the stunning BEF Ivan and demonstrated some of the finer points of training for the advanced horse. 

All in all a fun and informative day!   Many thanks to Art Perry the gracious host and Debbie Beth-Halachmy the organizer!
