Last week, Ryleigh was so fortunate to be able to participate in the Lendon Gray and Dressage4kids Horsemastership Clinic at Riveredge in MD.

It was an incredible 5 days of learning, which included 2 lessons with Olivia LaGoy-Weltz and 2 lessons with Linda Zang. They also participated in... field trips to Fair Hill to check out their therapy center, Hilltop Farm where the riders learned about breeding and conformation, and Select Breeder Services where they learned about the stallion collection and shipping, as well as breeding mares. There were also a bunch of lectures about different horse-related topics and fitness sessions!

In addition to the education, it’s always fun to catch up with D4K friends and meet new ones!

Thank you Ashley Madison and the whole crew at Yellow Wood Dressage, Inc and the Malones for hosting at your beautiful facility and making us feel at home! Thank you to Lendon Gray and D4K for putting this experience together. And thank you to all who gave their time and effort to make this happen for the kids!

Wrockstar
2018 New Forest Pony
Wicked Courtjester x Forrest Flame

Wrockstar measures at 14.3 1/2 and is an absolute blast to ride! He is smart, brave, and totally game for whatever comes his way. He is already showing excellent talent to move through the levels in dressage and is... athletic enough to be developed in any other discipline. He moves with exceptional balance for his age, and is ready to find his person to take him to the next level! He has been with us at Yellow Wood Dressage, Inc since the beginning of May and is progressing beautifully. Wrockstar has participated in our clinic with Kathy Connelly and is well behaved when being ridden inside, outside, and hacking with a buddy or solo. He is offered for sale, please PM with inquiries!
