Hello,
I'm Stacie a dressage trainer in the Sacramento area. Just joining on here from one of my students, and Ammy Army member, Stacy Mortazavi.
What a fabulous forum! I love the general orders and the mission in general. Very, very cool idea.
I hope you don't mind my joining in- sharing my support of your mission.
I train in dressage, but work with a variety of breeds, notably Spanish horses, but the arabs have a special place in my heart. For years I rode on the open h/j circuit, but I've also done limited distance endurance, cow work, and ridden a variety of styles at different times in my life. Currently, I have a straight Egyptian gelding (who I've done a little bit of EVERYTHING on) by Simeon Shai, and last year bought a 3/4 arab mare as a schoolmaster in our barn.
I'm really excited for my students who have arabs and will be showing or competing in endurance this coming season. They've put in a ton of effort and deserve every opportunity to enjoy what they've accomplished.
I look forward to meeting some of the other members of the forum.
Stacie
