Practical answers for anyone considering a first lesson, bringing a child, or moving a horse. Anything specific to the centre is marked as awaiting verification rather than guessed.
Every new rider begins with a 30-minute Assessment Lesson. Answer the five questions in the rider journey and your details are ready for the team taking that assessment.
