Already, the response to the Dressage Instructor Webinar has been overwhelming. Over 80 people registered for our first webinar last month, and 400 people have joined our new Dressage Instructor Facebook page! (https://www.facebook.com/Dressage-Instructors)
Thank you everyone! Together we make a difference for each other as professionals in the Dressage world.”
States Jodi Lees, “The Dressage Instructors webinars are designed to enhance the effectiveness of instructors in your teaching skills and in the management of your businesses. We want to be an asset for instructors – a place where you can find answers and have discussions about training, teaching and business concepts specifically pertaining to the equine industry. In this next webinar, we will continue our discussion from the Judge’s Box on riding figures accurately and correctly. We will also discuss teaching techniques for creating better communication with your students especially regarding confidence in the control of their horses and of their own balance in the saddle. We will finish off this webinar with a discussion about the necessity of effective record keeping in your horse business.”
Kelland-May says, “There is a lot of information out there for instructors. We’ve developed a series of webinars for dressage instructors that focus on; From the Judges Box, Teaching Techniques and Horse Business #101 business tools. It’s a brilliant format because we cover topics that are important to dressage instructors, as well as get into some business concepts to them develop their business side of things.” Kelland-May goes on to say that “Sometimes we dive into specific details of what the judge would like to see for specific movements and sometimes it is very heated discussion on our views. In any case, there are specific tools and tips for people to have to grow their business.”
