Want to Try Something New with your Horse?
Why not try Horse Agility?
This sport helps build a close relationship with your horse and engages your horse’s mind. It benefits your horse both physically and emotionally. A new course is released at the beginning of each month. You simply build the course at home, practice, film your entry and submit the video. Entries are judged, scored, and points awarded base on scores. As you accumulate points you move up the levels and courses become more complicated. Score sheets and comments are emailed from the club founder. The International Horse Agility Club was founded 9 years ago by Vanessa Bee as a worldwide standardized competition. It now has over 500 members, with 40 registered instructors and over 800 horses involved in the sport. American Haflinger Registry member, Kim Gieseke, won the 2017 World Champion – On Line Horse Agility and 2017 Reserve World Champion & North American Champion – Liberty Cup Trophy with her Haflinger, Miss Mary of OLF. Kim and her husband Jerry, own Promenade Horsemanship Academy, in Brighton, Colorado. She has been involved with International Horse Agility Club for the past 8 years and has become a certified instructor & is certified to conduct clinics and judge live competitions. She appreciates the variety of different challenges within the obstacles and the large language developed with the horse from competing in agility. Kim has built a partnership with her horse and enjoys teaching skills that can be applied to many different situations. At the 2018 Colorado Horse Expo, Kim was a selected clinician and she & Mary performed during the Mane Event evening programs. Congratulations Kim & Mary on your World Agility Titles!
