“FIX MY RIDE" HUNTER AND EQUITATION CLINIC With ELLEN SHEVELLA 2015-16 IEA ZONE 3 FINALS JUDGE & VETERAN USEF JUDGE A clinic open to all riders will be offered at Fox Pointe Farm LLC. on April 10, 2016. The format will be run as horse show classes that are placed, analyzed, discussed, re-schooled and re-jumped working on the suggestions and corrections provided by Ms. Shevella. Sections will be divided by height and riders’ experience. Flat classes will also be offered for Equitation pointers as well as Hunter Under Saddle. The clinic is directed as much to auditors as riders with interactive question and answer time for each class. This is a great education to help horse show moms and dads wishing to understand how the judging and competition process works. Clinician Ellen Shevella of Charlottesville, VA will help riders to see how the judges see them and how to improve their show placings. With emphasis on rules, equitation testing, handy hunter tips, and revealing many showmanship tricks of the trade, this event will emphasize how to separate yourself from the pack and consistently get rewarded with better ribbons.

She is also a very popular judge for IHSA, IEA and NCAA competitions.
