Training
at
 from
a
classical
perspective will
help
you
to
gain
the
qualifications
that
will
open
doors
to
careers
in
equestrian
endeavors
...
anywhere
in
the
world.
Certification
will
prove
that
you
have
achieved
a
standard
of
proficiency
which
will
give
employers
and
clients
confidence
in
your
expertise.
True
art
is
practiced
in
small,
private
places.
To
insure
the
quality
of
instruction,
the
dressage
school
does
not
accept
more
than
10
apprentices
at
any
given
time.
The apprentice
program
does,
however,
have
a
waiting
list,
so
you
will
need
to
make
your
reservations -
in
advance.
We
will
notify
you
as
we
have
openings
...
only
serious
students
need
to
apply.
