Practical Horseman OnDemand Launches New Training Video Series with Hunter Judge and Trainer Holly Hugo-Vidal

Practical Horseman OnDemand has launched a new video series featuring top hunter/jumper/equitation trainer, judge, clinician and author Holly Hugo-Vidal. Hugo-Vidal, who is based in Canton, Georgia, grew up in New York where she learned the importance of solid basics. With her former husband, Victor Hugo-Vidal, she ran the successful show barn Cedar Lodge Farm in Stamford, Connecticut. There she learned from Victor’s ability to help anyone with a desire to accomplish his or her goals. Another of her mentors, show jumper Rodney Jenkins, provided her with lessons in reading horses and creating in them a desire to please, both skills which have helped her become a talented trainer and horsewoman. In addition to her busy clinic and training schedule, Hugo-Vidal is also the author of the book “Build Confidence Over Fences!”. The book helps riders learn to jump courses competently, safely and consistently through a step-by-step series of exercises. Hugo-Vidal’s new series on Practical Horseman OnDemand can help riders of all levels and disciplines create more confident jumping rounds. She covers topics like leg placement, stirrup-iron placement, creating a willing horse, qualities of a good hunter round and how to deal with nerves.
