Ann Guptill is a professional dressage rider, trainer and instructor with her home base of operation at Fox Ledge Farm. Ann competes a variety of breeds and types of horses in dressage. Her career highlights include placing 5th individually at the 1987 Pan American Games and helping secure the Team Silver Medal. In 1992 she competed in the final Dressage Selection Trials for the Olympic Games. In 1991 and 1992 she placed 4th at the US League Finals for the Dressage World Cup.  

Ann is a US Dressage Federation Certified Instructor and serves as a faculty member for USDF Instructor Certification, conducting workshops throughout the US. As a committee member of the USDF, Ann has served as chair of the Certified Instructors Committee, the Test Writing Committee, and currently is chair of the Musical Freestyle Committee. She is also an "A" graduate of the US Pony Club, and has mentored many young riders in their progress through the Pony Club ratings.

Ann is best known for her partnership with Maple Magnum, her partner for the 1987 Pan American Games. The pair was on the United States Equestrian Team Training and Long Lists consistently from 1988 to 1993.

Price for riding participants will be $160 per day or $300 for both days. Whether you plan to ride one or both days you need to attend the lecture part of the clinic on the first day. If you have music that you think will work for you and your horse bring it with you.  If a participant requests a video preview prior to the clinic, they must contact Ann directly and pay a separate fee for that service. If a participant would like Ann to work with them after the clinic to develop a freestyle, she will give a 10% discount.

Auditing will be $15/day for nonmembers of the club, and free for club members. Please use the application form available in our newsletter or website. Send application and check made out to CDCT to: Dinah Guarino, 4250 Duryea St., Moravia, NY. 13118. Applicants should include their email address so the schedule can be sent when it is developed.
