Francisco Garcia Riding Clinic

Monday, April 14, 2025 - Thursday April 17, 2025

Francisco Garcia is an instructor at the illustrious Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Equestre in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. He has incomparable experience in both high school and competitive dressage. South Wind Stables in Pataskala, Ohio is proud to host Fransisco Garcia in a 4 day clinic, April 14-17, 2025.

Francisco is willing to work with dressage riders from training level to Grand Prix, and lessons will be in English. This would be a great opportunity to get in some world class education before show season really amps up!

Lessons will be priced at $250 for the first two rides, after that rides will be $225 each.

Pre registered auditors $40/day, includes breakfast and lunch, please bring a chair.

The price for riders and pre-registered auditors includes breakfast, coffee, and lunch each day. Non-pre registered auditors $30, bring your own food and chair. Clinic participantants may bring one groom/assistant. You and your groom will also be able to audit the other rides. We have a good mix of young/upper level horses participating, so there will be a lot to be gleaned from watching the other pairs.

We can accept Venmo to Athena Thickstun. (last 4 for venmo 2048) Amy Rothe-Hietter (last 4 for venmo is 9217) Checks/cash may be brought day of or mailed/payable to:
