Well, it´s a very busy start to the 2012 year! Lots of clinics, new horses in training and an exciting show in Santa Ynez on the horizon. I Had a wonderful time teaching a group of Kraftur members in Davis, Califonia, hosted by Henriette Bruun. Thanks to Henriette for making this such a wonderful event! I have added some more clinic dates to the schedule, so keep checking for new updates. In the meantime, all you California residents keep enjoying the exceptionally sunny and dry winter, and keep your butts in the saddle! -Laura
"We have known Laura Benson for over 5 years now and have worked with her in a clinic setting and have taken lessons from her for competition and pleasure riding. We find her teaching to be easy for a novice rider to understand and for an advanced rider to be just as valuable."
