If you wish to upgrade to a full membership and register your horse, so you can participate in future SPPHAV events, our awards and support your life after racing breed organisation, within 30 days of the clinic, we shall take the $20 off this cost and waive the administration joining fee***

45 min lessons – max 2 per group

Instructor 1 – Rebecca Lund – Ground work

This first lot of sessions is for those whom wish to work with their Standardbreds in hand – so not a ridden lesson, a groundwork lesson, so if you standardbred is currently not broken to saddle, this is a great opportunity for you or if you just need some tips to work on ground manners.

For those of you whom do not know Rebecca, she founded the Standardbred Pleasure And Performance Horse Association of Victoria (SPPHAV) over 20 years ago due to lack of opportunity for the Standardbred horse. She has broken and re educated many Standardbreds, won at Royal Show level and has also won the prestigious HRV award twice with different mounts. She is a classically trained dressage rider and has twice won the Standardbred dressage state championships. She is also involved in the racing industry and truly understands all the misconceptions of the Standardbred and also knows how to get over any hurdles you may have in progressing your Standardbred under saddle.

Instructor 2 – Fiona Dearing – Ridden Lesson

Fiona is otherwise known as “Remote Coach” - http://remote-coach.com/ - She has extensive experience in not only working and teaching people with Standardbreds but on confidence issues. She is a listed HERO re trainer of Standardbreds. Her style is one of encouragement and understanding – she will take her time and work through your issues.
