Hands — softer hands, quieter hands, more effective hands, a natural feel — things we all strive to achieve but somehow it eludes us. In this presentation, Christilot Boylen discusses how balance effects the connection to the horse through the hands. An evening not to be missed!!!

Clinician bio
Christilot Boylen was born in Java, Indonesia, and bought her first horse at age ten with savings she earned acting on the famous children's television program, "The Howdie Doodie Show." She trained her first Olympic mount, Bonheur, and, at age 17 received special permission to compete for Canada in the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. She has since been named to eight Olympic Teams, including the 1980 Alternate Olympics.
One of Canada's best-known dressage riders, Christilot has also competed on four Pan American Games teams. She earned individual gold medals at the 1971, 1975 and 1987 Pan American Games, making her the only athlete to achieve three individual gold medals in Pan Am history. In addition, she has been a Canadian National Dressage Champion seven times and, with a tenth place finish, was the highest placed North American rider at the 1984 Olympics. In 1991, she won the Hamburg Dressage Derby riding Pink Power, becoming the only North American to win the prestigious German event.
Christilot has trained with Willi Schultheis, George Theodorescu, Herbert Rehbein, and with partner Udo Lange. She has written two books and produced a video about dressage and is one of the founders of CADORA (Canadian Dressage Owners and Riders Association).
Christilot presently resides in Gammershof, Germany, and makes regular trips to Oakcrest Farms to conduct clinics.
