🐴Day 2 of the Julie Christie Clinic is underway🐴
The horses are back to work, the riders are feeling muscles they forgot they had, and everyone is trying to remember all the homework from yesterday! 😂
We’re already loving seeing the changes in the horses and riders. Lots of learning, improving, sweating, and probably a few “well, that wasn’t supposed to happen” moments! 🤣

Excited to see what Day 2 brings! Let’s ride! 🤠🐎

Big shout out to our amazing staff for showing up and taking the absolute best care of the horses in the worst of weather. From snow and ice to windchill of -32. We couldn't run this barn without these people.

Thank you isn't enough.
