September 27th and 28th MDA Freestyle ClinicWhat: Dressage Freestyle Clinic
When: Saturday and Sunday September 27 & 28
Where: MSU McPhail Equine Performance Center
Clinicians: Equisonic Productions in Partnership with Kimberly Dunlap Coaching
Brittany and Kimberly team up to bring this fun and educational clinic opportunity to Michigan’s English & Western Dressage riders. Over the course of two days, riders and auditors learn what it takes to succeed at the musical freestyle, plan your best choreography, and select the right music for your horse. This fun and confidence-building clinic is appropriate for riders who are new to the freestyle, or experienced riders looking to deepen their knowledge and add some polish to their riding.
First-time participants leave the clinic with a working draft of freestyle choreography for the level of their choice, and musical selections for each gait. Music production is offered post-clinic at an additional, discounted fee. Riders must participant both days as each day of the clinic has a specific focus and format.
The use of the McPhail Equine Performance Center for this clinic has been
generously given by the McPhail Endowment. The Midwest Dressage Association thanks the McPhail Endowment and Dr Jane Manfredi for helping to make quality education experiences affordable for our membership.
