Junior Riders Level 1
45 minutes riding + 15 minutes pony awareness.
This is a confidence giving session for total beginners or riders who have had an unfortunate scare.
All ponies are accompanied by a competent assistant and teaching is by qualified instructors.
Junior riders will be assisted at walk and trot to attain the basic skills of balance, rising trot and steering.
The pony awareness sessions will familiarise riders with some basic pony management such as: safety around ponies, tack, points of the pony, pony colours and much much more.
Sessions are conducted in either our indoor or outdoor arenas, depending on the weather conditions, ensuring our riders can ride in comfort regardless of our climate. We have excellent facilities for accompanying adults and other family members, complimentary tea and coffee is available whilst you watch the riding activity taking place.
Assessment sessions are held regularly to ensure young riders who have developed the necessary skills can make a smooth transfer into the next level.
It should be noted that all riders develop at different rates and no pressure will be placed on any rider to progress to further levels.
We are a non elitist establishment that encourages learning through fun and safety.
No assessment is required for entry into this level.
