CPW Equine Development

CPW Equine Development I train horses in a well rounded manner that includes work in hand, long lining and ridden work. I do all general training, with a focus in dressage.

Cedar has been a dedicated student of the horse for over 20 years, and though she has a well rounded base of experience, her main focus has been in the art of dressage. She studied for 15 years under master horseman, JP Giacomini, who was a student of Mestre Nuno Oliveira. The work she does with horses develops healthy biomechanics, relaxation and mental well-being to start horses from the beginni

ng, and to advance them to upper level movements such as piaffe, passage and flying changes. In conjunction with this, she helps people learn how their own biomechanics can help bring out the best in their equine partners. She teaches in a way that gives both horses and humans the building blocks of understanding so they can be set up for success at each new step. No matter the saddle or discipline, the main focus is correct, progressive training that translates into horses being prepared for the questions we ask. Cedar has been a clinician at the SEE, competed in RRP TB Makeovers, won the ILHA Festival FS in 2019 and has done performances of upper level dressage while riding bridleless. In 2018 she started to compete at rated dressage shows and made it to USDF Dressage Finals three consecutive years at the Grand Prix level. She has earned her USDF gold medal and gold freestyle bar. She also competes in western dressage at 5th Level, the highest level currently offered. Competition is not the main objective, but she enjoys the goals and milestones competing offers. Cedar is available for lessons, training sessions, clinics and consultations.

This morning started chilly - a little 🌞 sure felt nice!

On a philosophical note, shadows show the presence of light. If you are in a dark time, remember there is light to find ♥️.

Slow to post, but it's neat to reflect on my history at the Southern Equine Expo and I am so grateful for the horses (and supporting owners) who have been there with me!

Thank you to the Southern Equine Expo (SEE) for having me as a clinician this past weekend!

It was a great experience: I appreciated all of the audience interest, they asked great questions and I enjoyed getting to chat further with some after the sessions! And I am just grateful for the opportunity SEE gave me to share my passion!

Thank you to the buckskins and their owners! It is amazing to have owners/clients who are so supportive! And I'll say, it was pretty neat to have two buckskin Lusitanos to demo with. They're both pretty special 💛💛!!

Thank you to some of my students who came! It was wonderful seeing everyone!

Thank you to Bruce McNeill of Barefoot Movement for not only always tending to the feet, but for being so helpful with everything on busy weekends like these!

Thank you to my Mom who came up to help and support me. She has always nurtured this dream! I was the kid at Equine Affaire who looked big-eyed at the clinicians - it wasn't the top ranked show riders, it was the educators that most drew me! This is my second time as a clinician at the SEE and it feels like a continuing dream!

I'll be posting more photos/vid from the weekend, but wanted to go ahead and get this post of gratitude out ❤️.
