Centered Riding® Inc

Centered Riding Instructor's Courses are open to riding instructors who have already become familiar with Centered Riding through an Open Clinic or private work with a Level III or IV instructor. Instructor courses consist of seven teaching days held in two parts. The first part consists of three days, during which the participating instructors are given mounted/unmounted instruction and taught the fundamentals of Centered Riding, including the Four Basics, the Following Seat, and how to do body work on students. The second part of the Instructor Course is four days and involves mounted instruction, ground exercises, and practice teaching sessions. Limited space for student riders is available. Centered Riding Instructor Update Clinics are open to Centered Riding Instructors of any level. They are four days and are designed to refresh and expand the knowledge of Centered Riding Instructors in their own riding and teaching. Update Clinics provide an opportunity for Centered Riding Instructors to network with each other and share new ideas. The structure is the same as the second half of a Basic Instructor Course, including mounted instruction, ground exercises and practice teaching sessions.
