ABOUT PONY CAMP
Beginner Pony camp sessions are designed to give your child hands on experience in pony care & riding. They will be taught basic riding skills in the arena and will be taken for walk outs along the country lane.
Intermediate/Advanced sessions aim to improve current riding ability and include lessons in flatwork & jumping. Stable management lectures & practical sessions will test and improve existing knowledge.
CAMP SESSIONS
Pony camp sessions are run in small groups of up to 6 children each session is for 3 hours for 1, 3 or 5 days.
The session will include:-
- Grooming.
- Tacking up (putting on Saddle & Bridle).
- General Horse care.
- Riding Lesson tailored to the child's ability.
- Pony Games, Lead out or beach ride.
The sessions will be progressive over the 3/5 days and your child will be taking part in different activities/stable management tasks over the week. Children learn through fun and hands on experience under supervision. Beach/dune rides are subject to riding ability & weather conditions and are only held during 3/5 day camps.
Camp sessions are for children aged 7 years and over.
