 Discuss with Manolo the areas where you feel your horse and you need help and he will assess the horse and its muscular development and will then work with you to develop a suitable program to enhance your ongoing training
 

Learn the art of longeing and in-hand work to create softness, trust and correct muscle development.  It is a beneficial part of training as it encourages the horse to relax and focus on you - and teaches the rider timing and feel that is crucial for good riding.

 Manolo's love of and vast knowledge of horses is apparent in his teaching.  His emphasis is on relaxation and confidence of the horse in its rider to create a happy working relationship.  He demonstrates how correct influence of the rider on the horse is less stressful to the partnership and results in freer movement and greater harmony.  Manolo Mendez fosters the art of Dressage through confidence and happiness.  

Manolo Mendez will be returning to California for a clinic in the Bay Area August 9-12, 2008.   He trains horses and riders to the highest international level.  You will find his clinics absorbing and instructional for both riders and spectators.

Auditing is $25 per day or $80 for all 4 days. Please bring your own chair.
