About Blind Faith Equine Productions

 

BFEProductions, and  its owner, have produced, executed and promoted equine events, clinics and shows for many years. The events were in association with the Santa Barbara chapter of the California Dressage Society and other equestrian groups in the Central and South Coast regions from Moorpark to San Luis Obispo.

Blind Faith's objective is to reach across equestrian disciplines by focusing on the relationship between horse and rider regardless of tack, dress, competitive routines or breed.

Riding should always be looked at in anticipation of enjoying the close communication one can have with a proud and sensitive animal, willing to give of itself. Whether it is jousting, roping, cutting, jumping, racing, hunting, polo, equitation, dressage, pleasure horse or trail riding, it all revolves around being one with one's steed and having mutual respect for each other.

Like many of us, I fell in love with Kingston, my first hackney pony who I rode bareback in every way possible. He was my constant companion. That kind of affection lasts a lifetime and finds expression in the loving care with which a horse can be trained to do almost anything. That, in essence, is what Blind Faith tries to promote in events which either tests one's skills and resolve to succeed, teaches one to do so more effectively, or simply entertains an audience with equestrian showmanship.

To cover these activities interestingly, we have presented them in separate chapters to click on:
