3-4 night's board for their horse at Yvonne's Red Moon Farm, and one lesson a day: (day 1) dressage, (day 2) stadium, and (day 3) cross-country/ galloping/ steeplechase (off-site). In addition, you'll be discussing theory, riding strategy, conditioning, calculating minute markers, riding roads & tracks, horse care, etc.

Yvonne will provide stall/straw bedding/turnout. Winner would be responsible for hauling the horse, hay and grain, and their own accommodations, etc. Winner would have the possibility of riding other horses at her farm in addition to their own at no additional cost.
