"As life deals us all a deck of cards that we must deal with, my ongoing back soreness (bulging discs) is impeding my desire to compete my horses at the upper levels.  In addition, my traveling as a clinician, judge, T.D., FEI judge and USET Selector distracts from my preparation for competition.  This, however, is allowing me to help those serious riders of all levels to excel in Dressage, Cross-Country and their Show Jumping skills.  I have been fortunate to ride at the CCI**** level on many occasions for the USET.  Alas, I can now help others with the same goals.

"Kick on!"

-- Jim Graham

Both Jim Graham and David Adamo travel around the country teaching eventing clinics. David and Jim are both US Eventing Association Certified Instructors at Levels 3 and 4 respectively and have decades of international-level experience to draw upon. The instruction style is professional but friendly, and Jim and David's genuine appreciation of horses and riders at all levels makes for a confidence-building experience for both the horse and rider.

Clinic Fees and Structure

Clinics are structured with up to 16 riders or horses participating. Generally, 4 groups of 4 riders is the format most organizers choose to follow.  Jim will teach approximately 8 to 9 hours a day. Cost: $2000/day

If more than 16 riders or horses are participating then a $100 fee per extra horse or rider will be collected. 

All travel, living and food accommodations are paid by organizer. 

Clinic Deposit

Upon completion of Jim’s airfare reservation, a clinic is considered confirmed. Once the clinic is confirmed, organizers shall send a non-refundable $500 deposit to Jim made payable to Meadow Run Farm. This deposit will be applied to Jim’s clinic fee. However, if the clinic should cancel for any reason, the deposit will not be returned.
