This Weekend's Braiding Clinic!
Julia Pasek
Julia offers her experience and expertise in grooming and show braiding in a clinic to raise funds for the Horse Protection Society (HPS). This clinic will be fun and informative in a hands on atmosphere – held at SuitsUs 2 Stables in Langley.
About Julia: Raised on my parent's thoroughbred farm, I have always been surrounded by horses, which has led to my dedication to the equine world. I was a member of Grove Pony Club for several years where I learned the very fundamentals of care for horses while also gaining experience in dressage, show jumping, eventing, and Prince Philip games. I have shown to level 3 with coaching from Josephine Brouwer for the last few years. My acquired skills have been enhanced at Pacific Stud, where I gained horsemanship preparing yearlings for the select sale, working in the breeding shed, and grooming racehorses. Recently I have been blessed to work for Leslie Reid as a working student.
