Open House with Petra Beltran Lipizzaner Demonstration on April 3rd

February 09, 2010

I am very excited to announce that Petra Beltran is moving here from the Portola Valley on March 1st. Petra is originally from the Czech Republic and regularly trains with riding master Arthur Kottas Heldenberg, first Chief Rider of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, Austria. Petra will be demonstrating work in hand and long-lineing with the Lipizzaner mare Alejandra, Lipizzaner gelding Misha, Kladruber gelding Serpa and Lusitano gelding Xaleo.
This will be a lot of fun and a great experience! Everybody is welcome!

Dedicated Dressage Court and Grass Jumper Ring

February 06, 2010

With the arrival of a respected dressage trainer, Petra Beltran, we have decided to invest further into Clermont Equestrian so that we have the best dressage court at a boarding facility in the San Francisco Peninsula. To achieve this, we will be extending the length of the ring so that riders can canter in and circumnavigate the entire court prior to beginning their test. Secondly, after listening to several dressage riders and trainers, we decided to mirror the entire short side. The company doing this work will be the contractor that installed the mirrors at Stanford. Doing the short side seems to be the most important position to put them first. Later there may be more mirrors, but for now this is the first phase in our quest to be the undisputed best boarding and training facility for both dressage and jumper riders. For jumpers, the Grand Prix grass ring located in the Southeastern corner of Clermont will be completed mid summer.
