Instruction will be centered around Working Equitation, Cowboy Dressage, and Classical Dressage.
Riders in Lidia's clinics range from Intro to FEI in Dressage, with an occasional Grand Prix horse. She works with horses and riders from all disciplines and backgrounds, though. Her forte is rider alignment, coordination and timing of the aids, and identifying deficiencies on the horse's work; then presenting exercises to remedy that.
Lidia focuses on correct basics, regardless of the discipline. She will often have a competitive barrel racer, some eventers, and a range of dressage riders, along with a gaited horse all in the same day!
This clinic will entail a 45mins lesson 1 or both days; individual or semi-private (limit 2 riders).
- $125 for 1 day, $240 for 2. (Semi-private lessons are $80/rider.)
- $25/day for auditors, $40 for the weekend.

More about our clinician:
Lidia Taylor has been teaching riding lessons for over 20 years focusing on rider biomechanics, correct timing and application of the aids, and extensive use of school figures and exercises to address training issues. She is certified by the American Riding Instructor’s Association as Level II Dressage, Driving, and Recreational Riding and Level III Western Dressage instructor. She is a proud graduate of the Western Dressage Association of America’s Train the Trainer program. She has worked with horses from Paso Finos to Percherons. Her Working Equitation journey began in 2016. The inclusivity of the sport was a huge attraction, and its demanding nature from a training standpoint fit well with her own training and teaching. She promotes the sport by teaching Introduction to WE clinics as well as being a level "r" judge and Technical Delegate with USA Working Equitation.
