    CT Horse Symposium
    Sat Morning: Increase Communication, Improve Performance and Have Better Overall Control of Your Horse with Bob Burrelli

    9 AM - 12 PM Join Bob Burrelli for a fun and interesting clinic! Designed to have the human obtain better communication, improve performance and better overall control Bob will discuss the myths and wrong thinking that is impacting our horses and confusing many in the horse world. Bob will back up scientifically his teaching with truth and prove it (not opinions) with his demonstrations. This will include all breeds. Bob is also excited to do a Question and Answer session if time allows.

    9-10 AM Session 1: Groudwork for the Horse and Human (limited to 10 handlers) - Bob is a firm believer in proper ground work to make the horse supple in every direction. We concentrate on six body parts to move individually of the others, to maintain proper balance. When this is done from the ground first, it makes sense to the horse when mounted.

    10-11 AM Session 2: Horsemanship 1 (limited to 8 riders) - Equitation (Classic Dressage Principles) is designed to help people further understand how to get along with a thinking, feeling, decision-making animal. This is done through love, language and leadership. They are designed to help people increase their awareness level of what they see and feel and to improve their timing so as to better communicate with a horse. This is called feel, timing and balance.

    11 AM -12 PM Session 3: Advanced Horsemanship 2 (limited to 6 riders) - This class is for advanced riders to understand how to execute proper feel and to do all the correct movements of shoulders in, haunches in, side pass, half pass, full pass, how to execute proper lead changes and more.

    The afternoon will feature a showcase of UConn Teams including the UConn Dressage Team, UConn Equestrian Team, UConn Western Team and a UConn polo match!
