New barn!
Barglow Dressage has happily settled into RDLA in Castro Valley. We are greatly enjoying the indoor with a full wall of mirrors and outdoor dressage court, and the horses are all wonderfully bouncy in the rubber footing and quiet and content in their stall/padfocks and turnouts. See the facilities page for more information.
