Glenn Stewart Natural Horsemanship Stage 3/4 in Smithers, April 13+14, 2012.
This clinic is open to those who have passed their Stage 2 assessment. Stages 3 + 4 are where the magic of horsemanship starts. Can you imagine knowing the secrets of control without force, of communication without ropes?
Learn to tell the critical difference between lack of understanding or confidence vs. disrespect and the different ways to deal with each. Learn about impulsion and how to encourage positive reflexes both on the ground and in the saddle.

The Bulkley Valley Farmers’ Market Association (BVFMA) was established in 1996. It operates a market at the Central Park Building parking lot at 1425 Main St. (at the corner of Highway 16) on Saturdays from 8 am to 12 pm from Mothers' Day weekend in May to the end of September. Indoor markets are held during winter months.
The objective of the market is to educate and encourage local production by providing an outlet for local farm produce, crafts and products of cottage industry. While it is called a farmers market, and the BVFMA does focus on food products, the BVFMA promotes all local cottage based industries. We have a 'make, bake, or grow' policy and are committed to quality products that improve the health and lives of individuals, as well as facilitate social, economic, and cultural activities that improve the community as a whole.
Come out and learn the Waltz and Jive, Rumba and Foxtrot with adults in the Bulkley Valley! A fun and high energy class for beginners to advanced ballroom dancers. A great way to spend time with your special someone!
The class runs for 15 weeks from 7-8pm at Creative Roots' Elk's Hall in Smithers starting Thursday February 2nd. $330 per couple for the entire session.
