We’re so excited to welcome Nick Onoda back to Silver Tail Farm!
It’s been a while since Nick has been here for a dressage clinic, and we’re thrilled to have him back. We’ve always appreciated his keen eye, thoughtful approach, and ability to bring out the best in both horse and rider.
October 31 & November 1, 2026
Silver Tail Farm | Creswell, Oregon
Nick Onoda of Caldecott Stable, located in Briones in the East Bay of Northern California, is an FEI dressage trainer and competitor with 20+ years of experience, with a strong emphasis on the classical system of dressage.
Nick has competed multiple horses through the lower and FEI levels, young horse classes in both the United States and Germany, as well as Elite Breeding Qualifiers in Münster, Germany. He has had the pleasure of working with some of the greats in dressage, including Stefan Wolff and Günter Seidel, and previously operated his business at the home of Steffen and Shannon Peters in San Diego.
What makes Nick such a special clinician is his ability to help both horse and rider unlock their potential. He specializes in working with the physiology and psychology of horses and riders and is passionate about helping riders of all levels better understand their horses and communicate through correct biomechanics.

It’s time for our Dressage community to come together and give back
We’re inviting riders, supporters, and friends to help our youth riders achieve their goals by participating in this special fundraiser event. These young athletes are the future of our sport, and this is a meaningful opportunity to support their journey.
Silver Tail Farm has generously donated the facility, with all proceeds from the event going directly toward supporting our youth riders of USDF Region 6 (with only essential costs such as bedding, stall setup, and cleaning deducted).
So let’s dust off our boots, step into the ring, and kick off the show season with a relaxed, fun, and supportive league show atmosphere. Whether you ride, volunteer, or simply come to cheer—your support makes a difference.
We hope to see you there!

DETAILS:
Join us at Silver Tail Farm in Creswell, Oregon for a relaxed, low-pressure schooling show fundraiser. This is a great opportunity for horses and riders to gain experience in a supportive environment.
All proceeds will go toward our journey to the 2026 North American Youth Championships (NAYC). There will also be a pizza party and silent auction on Saturday evening. More information to come!
If you are a youth rider and want to volunteer, please reach out directly to Nicki Grandia at [email protected] OR Molly Wineger at [email protected].
