2010
- The United States Equestrian Federation, Inc. (USEF) invited Bruce Griffin to
be a special guest speaker on their "Power Star Panel" at their Youth Convention
on January 16, 2010. This convention was held during the USEF Annual meeting in
Louisville, Kentucky. The USEF Youth Council invited Bruce Griffin to
represent Friesians and showing horses in hand. The Star Power Panel consists of
high profile equestrian athletes representing breeds/disciplines who share their
backgrounds, experiences and offer insight to the attendees on what has made
them so successful. Congratulations on this outstanding honor Bruce!
A Unique Horsemanship program
Our students learn basic handling of the horse, ground working, grooming, general care and even some riding. It has been our experience that riding is not the most important part of learning to be with horses. Our students develop working relationships with the horses on their team.
You will be happily surprised and amazed at the confidence, strength and loving attitude your child will take home from this program. Parents of our students often remarked about the new respect their children are showing to them and to others, along with a new sense of accomplishment and self-worth.
If your child is interested in learning more about horsemanship in a safe, positive and complete manner, give us a call.
