Saturday 9th
June Thornton

The next Harry Payne clinic
will be held on Saturday 9th June, at Thornton, by kind
permission of Shirley Rixon for Aspley Guise & District
Riding Club members only. We are getting closer to the
Riding Club qualifiers in July so why not take up the
opportunity to improve you and your horse with a top trainer
and competitor ...
Please complete an
application form and send it with your cheque to Mary
Cloake, Holl Tree Farm, Leighton Road, Heath and Reach,
Leighton Buzzard, LU7 0AA. £30 individual, £15 each if two
sharing. Remember, no cheque no place - I cannot reserve
places by phone or e-mail. If, having booked and
confirmed your time, you do not turn up for your lesson,
the lesson will still be charged for. Please be as flexible
as possible regarding the time of day that you are able to
attend.
Harry has been delighted at
the way the clinics have run and hopes that all those who
have attended are enjoying them too. Newcomers always
welcome.

Feedback:
“Harry really made the lesson fun
but I also have plenty to go away and work on! I will
definitely be going to more of his clinics”.
“I had a most enjoyable clinic
with Harry on two different horses. We made good progress in a
very short period of time, especially with my mare, who many
instructors have on her hind legs in ten minutes (and not
through asking for levade!). Harry made me loosen and push on
into long and low before asking for roundness. It was an
excellent lesson”.
Here are some
of the problems you’ve told us about:

“I’d really like to know how to
get my horse to leg yield and do shoulder in”
“I think I’d like to have a go at
a novice dressage test but I don’t know what’s involved …”
“My horse won’t trot in a
straight line. I need help”
Here’s the solution:
Harry Payne, enthusiastic
and friendly, runs his own yard near Rugby, producing young
horses and is passionate about bringing out the best in riders
and horses. Whether he is teaching you how to walk and trot,
persuading your horse to accept the idea of flatwork, flatwork
to help with jumping or just improving your flying changes, he’s
keen! He just happens to be a List 3 Judge and is a British
Dressage Accredited Trainer (so knows which way round the horse
should be facing) and a British Dressage Under 21’s Co-ordinator
(so even copes with teenagers). He has even had a career in
Three Day Eventing – so loads of experience and keen to help
every member of the Club, big and small, young and old, novice
and experienced – you just have to believe it!

You can opt to have a lesson with Harry on your
own, or if you prefer to share, you can do so, either coming
with a friend, or we will try to pair you up, subject to
sufficient interest. All you need to do is complete the form
below, indicating what you would like to work on and what
time of day would suit you best.
