She could easily be mistaken for a teacher, a secretary or a model. She is none of these. -- ALI JUDY is an innovative, independent businesswoman. Her life-lon- g occupation is horseman- ship, the training of animals and the instruction of people so they can train their own horses and teach others these skills. Her greatest desire is to appeal to people to update their horse training methods. To accomplish the goal of improving the safety of the rider and the horses training, she operates Alis JEFF SCHOFIELD Horsemanship Academy.

Ali was the educational force behind the accomplishments of this animal and this family that eventually established a highly successful training school in Illinois. This goal has been realized in many different ways. During Alis 22 year career, she has established A LOVE of animals especially horses is what attracted Ali to the businesses in Utah, Arizona and the Midwest. Some of these have horse training and profession. As a young girl growing up in Northern Utah, she was first introduced to riding by her father who farmed using draft animals long after most people were using tractors. developed into schools with nine teacher-trainin- g different horsemanship trained owners, staff and students. She conducts clinics, demonstra tions, lectures and video presentations along with the more conventional regular lessons and specialized sessions. ONE OF Alis most interesting drill group projects is a that performs to classical music. She calls them Alis Dressage Alis first riding horse was named Old Flax. She remembers many enjoyable hours spent with this animal. - I ALWAYS wanted to train horses, Ali says of her early experiences. As soon as I earned enough money, I went to the best trainers to learn all I could. Eventually she studied under Charles O. Williamson and Master Trainer Charles (Chuck) Grant along with many others. She became accomplished in several fields but incorporates Dressage Training for the Western and English Training into her programs. She teaches people to break and train their own animals. She has trained and riden horses schooled in Grand Prix Dressage. Her early training was in all styles of equitation and jumping. These skills she willing passes on to her pupils. Ali has done clinics throughout most of the United States. She has ALI REQUIRES her students to commit themselves to working with the horse on a regular basis. At first this involves three times a week for IVi hours a session for a period of one month. In just this length of time, Ali can teach an inexperienced person to break their own horse and it will be safe and obedient. By doing this, the horse and the owner can have a very good and safe start. The horse is well adjusted and working to its potential. Riding is then a fun experience for the owner who has learned to be involved themself. Ali says many things about horse training frightens people. For example, the word Dressage to many means something they would never want to learn or something that would make their horse crazy. shown in all the major circuits. She has had articles published in many national horsemanship magazines and journals. More important, Ali has instructed others to train champions for themselves and she enjoys this aspect of the horse industry the most. TRAINING people is the most important part of Ali Judys profession. She claims, I cannot see to it that every horse gets kind and proper training but if I can train more people to use correct training techniques, then in essence I am on the road to helping more horses re- ceive kinder and better quality training. is no charge to belong to this group. People must audition by calling Ali at 544-7- 1 11. Ali Judy is now affiliated with the Cloverleaf Stables on Angel Street in Layton. She runs her own program which is geared to the needs of any individual who asks the question, How can I get help with my horse? l essons are as simple as learning how to ride so that both the animal and the person are comfortable. They can be as complex as teaching the horse to roll over and perform tricks. Sessions can be geared to special problems like getting a spoiled horse into a trailer. A future clinic on Dec. 28 will discuss Breaking a safe and quick way. Aires. There Not so, says Ali. Dressage simply means training and manag- -' ing a horse. It is a French word. Ali explains the Dressage background makes the horse much calmer and deviates the use of gimmicks and incorrect head setting. It is a tool that can be used to bring out the best in the horse and the rider. . HORSEMANSHIP Ali Judy of Layton shows off Gazarmus, an Arabian Stallion, she trained over five years.
