Stacy Sutton offers WE Play Days, and Fun on the Working Equitation course practice sessions on her beautiful show regulation Working Equitation Course. (private, semi-private, and for groups from your barn.) 

These fun and educational sessions are very casual in structure and are designed for the Introductory and Novice Level horse and rider. Open to all riders and disciplines, it is a great way to try out WE and enhance the communication between you and your horse. Play Day and Group Sessions last about 1 1/2 hours total and we focus on the "Ease of Handling" phase. We practice each obstacle chosen for that day and then take turns executing a fun small "course". 
Also offering "Greenie Weenie In-Hand" obstacle sessions for young or green horses for the handler to navigate dismounted.
