Schooling Shows Schooling shows are meant to allow riders to practice showing their horse in a informal and friendly setting. There will be a judge, but their main purpose is to provide feedback and guidance to each rider. This schooling show is open to all riders (English or western), we only ask that you come dressed in appropriate show attire to participate, and of course will need to execute the patterns we have designated. There will be a set list of patterns that will be part of each schooling show, so riders can practice the pattern that most pertains to their level. Patterns will range from beginner (walk-trot), intermediate (PGHRA modified patterns), to advanced (NRHA full patterns). We will also be doing western pleasure, trail and ranch riding patterns. Patterns are available to view on our website under the Patterns link, and copies will be available and posted at the schooling show. Dates: May 8, 2022 Registration- Click Here If you have any questions about the schooling shows, please contact the PGHRA at northernbcreining@gmail.com. |
