Dorothy Morkis Clinic

Olympian Dorothy Morkis was here on July Sat 11th, Sun 12th & Mon 13th 2009.

Olympian Dottie Morkis emphasizes the importance of the rider’s core. “If the posture is correct, it translates to correct and quiet hands, effective leg aids, and a much more harmonious ride overall.” An experienced international competitor from Massachusetts, Dottie works on suppling both horse and rider “Shoulder-in has an influence on everything, it helps you to equalize the horse, loosen their jaw and supple their back. It is the building block for all things.” Available to students of all levels at $125 per ride. Auditors welcome.
