For everyone 🙂 (no riding skills needed) - children, youth, adults. The goal is to show what horse riding and horse care is all about - plus a short ride. We also answer all your questions about horses, riding equipment and horse riding.
Program outline
🐴 Welcome and introduction
Greeting by organizers and a brief presentation of safety rules for interacting with horses (Q&A).
🐴 Horse grooming
Preparing horses for riding. We show how and why to groom a horse before riding. We split into groups and groom the horses. We talk with participants and answer questions about horses and riding.
🐴 Leading a horse
We show how to safely lead a horse on a lead. Then each participant can lead a horse themselves (safely, under instructor supervision).
🐴 Saddling and horse riding
We show what riding equipment is needed to saddle a horse. We discuss safe riding rules on a lead and how to mount. Each participant puts on a helmet (provided) and can mount the horse for a short ride (horse led by instructor).
🐴 Feeding horses
We discuss the basics of horse nutrition and feed the horses at the end (for children's groups - an interactive quiz about horse feeding).
