IT'S SHOW TIME
Showing gives you or your rider the chance to show all that they have learned in the barn. Showing is an awesome opportunity for you or your rider to challenge themselves and try something new!
Steps to Show
Let Georgia know!
Coordinate with Georgia about which shows you would like to attend.
Show Clothes
We will work with you to outfit you or your rider. Your riders presentation during shows is important! We want to make you or your rider feel and look you best when show time rolls around.
Show Prep
Hair, Makeup, Bun, and Show Clothes. Make sure to have boots taped (if needed) tie downs under boots, bootie covers on, tie bar on, cuff links in, tie tied, helmet cover on, bow on bun, and whatever else you need to be as show ready as possible!
Show Time!
When you arrive, come to the barn to grab your back number and add final touches.
Academy Show Gear
Show clothes typically include a dress shirt, vest, tie, jods, boots and gloves. Check with Georgia about where to purchase these! (When in doubt, ask Georgia)
Here are the items we recommend!
Can also call Heather at Commotion to order jods
