Internship Position Opening! September 2024<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Paul Belasik and Rose Caslar Belasik have an opening for our internship program beginning September 2024. Come to ride and learn with two Grand Prix trainers and observe all levels of training, up close!\u00a0 Paul Belasik is known as a “trainer’s trainer” and is internationally respected for his many books on dressage and his decades of classical riding and coaching all over the US and beyond.\u00a0 USDF Diamond Achievement rider and author Rose Caslar Belasik is a talented teacher who brings her knowledge of pilates, yoga and sports psychology to her riding and coaching. We are a small, elite training barn where we share not just the “how” of riding your horse but the “why.” We bring theory and history into our daily work, which will help make you an outstanding future rider and instructor.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Are you ready to break through some of the glass ceilings on your skill levels and understanding of dressage? We guarantee improvement in your position and your horse\u2019s training. You will have access to our extensive library of books and videos, including some rare footage of classical masters. There is ample time for questions and discussion during the day and a variety of breeds and types of horses to observe.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The compensation for your detail-oriented, cheerful work, is a generous package: your own spacious apartment with washer dryer, AC and WIFI, all utilities included. You will ride with daily coaching, have a weekly private lesson with Paul and receive a monthly stipend. Bringing your own horse is preferred, but it may be possible to make arrangements if you do not have access to a horse.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We work hard, but we do it in an atmosphere of teamwork and positivity. The position entails typical barn chores and horse care from 7-6 each day with a half hour lunch break. Night check 3 days per week. 1.5 days off per week, some flexibility required during show season.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No pets, no smoking. Must be 18 years old. Full year position – inquire about flexibility.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the right candidate, opportunity for growth into assistant trainer\/barn manager position.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We are looking for that serious equestrian student who is a self-starter, can work independently and loves to take care of horses.\u00a0 Our previous interns have gone on to be FEI riders, trainers and assistant trainers, barn managers, and professional grooms! One of the benefits of working for us is the continued mentorship we offer our interns. We keep in touch with many of our former interns, offering professional support and connections whenever possible.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As Alois Podhajsky said, \u201cthere must be a balance between theory and riding. Without this balance, riders go from one system to another with no understanding of biomechanics or history. They just ride each day, making mistakes that have already been proven to be ineffective.\u201d<\/p>\n

  • \u201cPaul has immense talent in finding a way to get his point across, explaining not only what to do but HOW to do it. The most fulfilling thing is that in my time at The Pennsylvania Riding Academy I started to see the bigger picture when it comes to Dressage\u2026I couldn't be more content knowing that I have the guidance of a master like Paul.\u201d<\/p>

    Andrea Meoak <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>

  • \u201cThe word that always comes to mind when I try to describe the year is \u201cthorough.\u201d I received a solid background in history, theory, national styles, past and current masters, modern competition and of course, technique, technique, technique. No stone was left unturned when it came to my understanding and developing a correct seat and hands that will serve me for years and levels to come. I would not describe the year as easy, but I will tell you that it was inspiring, challenging and ultimately, confidence building.\u201d<\/p>

    Rose Caslar<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>

  • \"After meeting Paul and watching him train, along with reading his book, 'Dressage for the 21st Century' and riding in his clinics in my home state, I knew that I had met one of the few dressage trainers alive in the world today who could teach me about collection. My internship with Paul Belasik has helped me to understand what riders such as Pignatelli, Pluvinel, Gueriniere and Podhajsky have known about collection.\"<\/p>

    Pam Larson<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>

  • \"It was the first time I got the feeling that somebody really wanted to invest in me as a classical rider, both practical and theoretical\u2026This is in my opinion an internship for the truly dedicated and interested Classical rider.\"<\/p>

    Jorunn Buer <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>

  • \u201cThis internship program represents one of the most rewarding and enriching periods in my life\u2026Over the course of two years, I was carefully guided through a comprehensive academic and applied study of dressage. Weekly reading and research gave way to greater insight with respect to the validity, relevancy, and historical context of important equestrian literature. Even further, daily riding sessions allowed for the necessary time in the saddle where theory could be explored and advancements in technique could be made\u2026Those who \"show up and work hard\u201d, will receive a transformational education they will cherish for the rest of their life.\u201d<\/p>

    Ryan Hopkins<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>

  • \u201cWhether they be horse or human, Paul has an uncanny ability to make each of his students perform to the best of their ability: somehow he seemed to know exactly what I could be capable of and never ceased to encourage me to push myself further and further. He had high expectations, and I strived to meet them\u2026I left the academy when August rolled around as a completely different rider\u2014a stronger, confident, and much more educated one.\u201d<\/p>

    Camille Garceau <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li>

  • \"During my internship, I had a great opportunity to see how a well-run, successful farm operates\u2026I learned a great deal about real-world, hands-on horse care and management throughout my internship. From equine first-aid to doing a running braid, I acquired practical skills which continue to help me care for my own horse\u2026My weekly lessons with Paul helped me to improve my riding position and to become a more correct and effective rider\u2026Throughout my internship, I gained valuable knowledge, experience, and received excellent training. Did I work hard during my internship? Yes. Was it worth it? Definitely.\"<\/p>
