Blind Faith Equine Productions Objectives

BFEProductions objective is to encourage riders and equine enthusiasts, with an emphasis on young equestrians, developing a yearning to learn more about the continuing development of Dressage as an Art form.

We produce events that encourage our youth to participate in activities uniting equestrians with a love of horses in all disciplines. Through the continual development of riders and horses in clinic and show environments, as well as exhibition and education, Blind Faith Equine Productions strives to bring each rider to a new place in their evolution and pursuit of a unique relationship with their equine partners.    

 The production of Dressage shows in Southern California is a sought after business.  Ten years ago, the beginnings of Dressage shows popping up along the coast, we've seen an outgrowth of shows, practically every weekend within a 100 mile radius of Santa Barbara. USEF regulations for licensing shows require a 100 mile radius between any two. This limits the possibilities of bringing more rated Dressage shows to a surrounding area such as Santa Barbara.  There have been rumors about lessening the scope of these regulations over the most recent years. It's  easier for riders to find rated shows within one or two hours drive every weekend now.  However, that growth also limits the ability for our community to produce more shows. 

Junior and young riders face the additional challenge of cost and transportation. Show fees have escalated along with living costs, which in the end have to be borne by the riders, since horse shows in America have not yet risen into the ranks of spectator sports. For young entry-level riders to be competitive it requires a bank roll to qualify for the basics.  Blind Faith is constantly looking for ways to deflect some of these costs to encourage young riders to join the ranks for the future of Dressage. 

We welcome Sponsors who empathize with our vision enough to support more incoming young riders.  We continuously seek sponsorship support through scholarship awards, class sponsorships, products for awards and gift certificates, we welcome all sponsorships where you'd like to help us support these riders..  The same method can be used to make space for young riders in our clinics and traveling programs.

Pony Clubs are a rich resource of young riders. While they are mostly focused on Three Day Events, Dressage Rally's and their testing, it is well to keep in mind that their first day at the Three day is devoted to Dressage.  While their tests differ somewhat, they are of the same community and can make enthusiastic Dressage competitors, to the benefit of their Pony Clubs.

There will always be a notable difference in a Blind Faith Equestrian Production show, clinic or exhibition performance.  Their style will be overtly adventurous, enthusiastic, creative, filled with special features, awards/prizes and initiatives to attract new riders, we welcome all disciplines of equine enthusiasts. 

Join the team by volunteering at one of their events or being a sponsor. The fulfillment of helping others is always returned ten fold from the heart.  Contact us directly to learn more about helping to enrich your life, and the lives of others.
