Ride with the Judge! 🐴 USEF "S" Judge & popular clinician, Cindy Canace, will be in the Seacoast this summer!

We’re thrilled to welcome USEF “S” judge Cindy Canace for a two-day dressage clinic on August 3–4, directly following her judging duties at the exceptionally popular Summer Dressage Show.

Cindy brings decades of insight to help you elevate your test performance, improve clarity in training, and refine your presentation in front of the judge’s box.

Whether you’re polishing for a show, want direct feedback from a seasoned judge’s eye and national clinician, or simply want excellent instruction, consider joining us! Cindy will be at Beniah Lane Farm in Epping, NH and is accepting ship-ins each day. For groups of 4+ rides, a half-day clinic at your facility in the area would also work.
