"Smile when you ride"
Everything from ground work to advanced lateral moves. Live everyday to the fullest and never have any regrets. Live, love and laugh often, especially from the back of a horse. Proper horsemanship is a constant work in progression and under strict theories. No one said it was an easy task, but the rewards are worth it in the end!
Melanie also has several horse books out on the market, and is the dean of hippology and writes equine and equestrian courses for the International Riding Academy. She firmly believes in the school's proud principles of achieving proper horsemanship through enlightened equestrian education and schools to perfection. See the website http://iracademy.webs.com
Melanie is the president of the local riding club that focuses on classical riding, not competition. The club is also expanding into eventing now, which the basis is for fun, again not competition nor high levels. http://dhdapc.webs.com
