Default Robert Dover!

I'm getting so excited for this!
Recently, my coach has been talking to Robert Dover about coming to do a high performance athlete/coach clinic. He just got named as Canada's Technical Coach and seeing as WEG is coming up she thought it would be a good idea to have him come out here a few times.
She is trying to qualify for WEG.
So we've confirmed him for Dec 2 & 3 and the clinic is already full. I got asked to ride, and of course I said yes! It's fricking expensive though, so I'm in the process of making sponsorship packages and begging for money from acquaintances :P (speaking of, anyone want to mail me a cheque?)

Has anyone here watched him teach?? Or ridden with him? I've heard he's quite good and I trust that if DC is going to name him as Tech. Coach he'll be good :P

Sounds exciting! I've never heard of him... but I don't know many big name trainers (more like i know zero of them) so that's not surprising, ha ha. Have fun!

I have seen him and his students ride - good but use too much "hand". (I tend to do the same thing hence why I noticed it and have never forgotten).
