3. MAKE FRIENDS: Even if you don’t come with friends you know, you’re sure to make friends when you spend the day with other students your own age who share your love of horses.
4. TRY SOMETHING NEW: Not only do you get two riding sessions at riding camps but we also offer extra activities such as vaulting and bareback riding.
5. TAKE YOUR TIME: When you have weekly lessons there is often a tight schedule and students have to rush off after their lessons and fit in with the family’s activities, but at camp you have all day to spend.
6. SAFETY AWARENESS: spending the day around horses allows our coaches to reinforce the essential elements of every aspect of horse handling and riding safety.
7. LEARN NEW SKILLS: Plaiting, grooming assessing a horse’s health, saddling, bridling and hosing are all skills we teach at Riding Camp.
