Shows
 
Depending on the
horses we have and as time allows we show. We mostly work with
green horses and enjoy a broad training spectrum so we do not
show-show often.

Tropical Rider's Wieger. More

Side Saddle
   
   
Anneke and
Tropical Rider's Wieger at the October 2011 side-saddle clinic
by Texas Ladies Aside. Wieger's first time and we right away did
walk, trot, AND canter. Fun! Read more about side saddle on our
Facebook
account (public album under 'Anneke van den IJssel').

Training
For info
on our Training services visit the
Lesson & Boarding page
(click).
We train age appropriate,
specialized in Friesian horses, no rush jobs, no rocket science
but rather common sense with proper English riding, geared to
the individual horse.
We have
trained a bunch of outside Friesians. Currently we are focused
on our own Friesians and are only available by special request.
 
Anneke and then
3 y.o. client horse Zwarte spring 2010. Left just a couple of
weeks under saddle in the rain in the arena. Right first trail
outing with 1 1/2 months of saddle training by Anneke. See also
the photo in the header of training/sold sale horse Rudy summer
2010, then newly saddle trained by Anneke.
   
4 y.o. mare
Mynke, here 3 mos. under saddle by Anneke with Anneke at the
Equine Expo in Ft. Worth before and during the Friesian demo.
  
Anneke with
imported, sold sale gelding Luca, then 3 y.o., 2 months under
saddle, just 1 week out of quarantine from his overseas trip and
straight with Anneke to the Equine Expo of Texas in Ft. Worth.
   
One of Anneke's favorite, personal
sale horses, Rudy (now sold), 'broken' spring 2010 and trained by Anneke,

Bareback Bridleless
   
March 2011,
Anneke & Sanne riding bareback-bridleless with the Frisian
flag in walk, trot, canter. We used to do this often together but it's been
a long time for her now yet she remembers everything! We even
performed downtown Chicago quite a few years ago.

Jumping
Something we
also have always enjoyed is jumping. Anneke jumped jumps similar
to this with her first Friesian but we do not have any photos of
it. This is Anneke with a warmblood in Germany. Trot poles and
jumps are a great training aid at the right stage and age and we
will put some up in our upcoming indoor arena. |
