I love my Frank Baines Elegance dressage saddle! I can't say enough wonderful things about the Baines line - they are very well made, with high quality quality workmanship. My saddle has a deep...

Doesn't Bailey teach out of a couple farms in what I would call the "greater" Chapel Hill area (between CH and Durham)? If she doesn't do that currently, at least I think she used to.

Gallant - that is a beautiful photo! You both look so sharp!

Sent you a PM with a suggestion...

Hidden Springs is well south of Charlotte... Diane is good though. Lindsey Staiano also trains there and is an eventer.

In addition...in the Mooresville area...

JJ Tate is the way to go if you want a horse confirmed at Grand Prix in a firm, but kind, consistent manner. She is expert at working with youngsters, but has the FEI background to take a horse all...

What exactly are you looking for? Sounds like a loaded question I know, but are you looking for a trainer who specializes in working with riders new to dressage, do you have a green or retraining...

Amanda - your photos are just LOVELY, and they grey helmet suits you very, very well. I think it is extremely flattering to your fair hair and complexion. I absolutely LOVE IT!! Thanks so much for...

I saw this post yesterday, and have been following it with great interest! I, too, have heard wonderful things about Susan Hopkins. Depending on where you are located, you might want to check her...

Hands down...Jessica Jo Tate! She is based out of Hassler Dressage.

Ok guys - here is another stupid question - how do you know if your head is "round" or "oval"? Is it something you determined by trying on lots of helmets, or did you have someone at a tack shop fit...

Guys - thank so much! The dove grey will be fine for dressage shows - I forgot to mention that I ride a grey horse, and for showing, I would pair the helmet with a navy Eurofit dressage jacket that...

I need a new helmet to replace my IRH ATH. The IRH replaced an old Troxel Legacy; the Troxel fit my head better, but it was not as attractive helmet as the ATH when looking at them side by side. When...

Much can be done to improve the flatwork - no matter the age! Most horses, no matter the issues, can be retrainable! Don't give up hope!! Just takes lots and lots of patience, and in the real hard...

Jenn - I'm sure you always look forward to my comments! LOL! It matters not to me how many national accreditations this person has - they are not correct. However, that is my opinion I guess. I am...

This horse needs to be taken back entirely to flat work and re-started. Until you get him calmer and teach him to slow down all you are going to have is a train wreck. He needs to learn to respond to...

Full Circle - as I began reading your initial post, the first thing that popped into my mind is the possibility of vision issues in this horse.

My husband and I have a 24 yr. old QH who has...

Wow! Under $400 - I wish I could get a quote that low. About the best I have found runs around $700 per year. I would like to have the option to pay it quarterly rather than all at once.

Yes, Gallant, that makes sense. Thanks so much for the info. Do they have a website?

Just wondering if there are any instructors out there who purchase their liability insurance for teaching from companies that allow you to pay the premiums either monthly or quarterly vs. annually....

With your weight distributed evenly/squarely in the saddle, bring your outside leg back slightly behind the girth (as you normally would when asking for the canter depart). Make sure that the horse...

bumknees-I love your post! I couldn't agree with your words more! I am a Christain who long ago became dissatisfied with many of the judgemental nature of many fellow "Christains". Its so odd because...

Without a doubt I would ride with CDK! I have cliniced with him once as well as one of his students, Jessica Jo Tate, on several occasions. Both are super fantastic teachers, and well worth the money...
