What a great 📸 of Bert de Nemethy!

During his 25 year post as coach, the legendary equestrian led the United States Equestrian Team to international acclaim in 6 Olympics, 5 Pan American Games, 4 World Championships, and countless international competitions.
See his favorite exercises on the longe line designed to establish, maintain and refresh the rider’s proper position in general and to develop a solid seat in particular. He even used these techniques on his team riders right up to and during the Olympic Games. #equestrianlegend #throwbackthursday

Excellent commentary from Julie Winkel on the Chronicle today about "the comatose show hunter".

We're so excited that Julie and Scott Hofstetter are judging the 2020 ANRC National Equitation Championships in April.

At the ANRC National Equitation Championships, Julie and Scott will score riders across 3 riding phases of the competition: a hunter seat equitation phase (30% of total score); an equitation derby phase (30% of total score); and a flat phase composed of hunter seat equitation movements (35% of total score). The final phase is a written test (5% of total score) based on Forward Riding Theory and parts of the USHJA Study Guide.
