Niki Hardwick 'Getting back into the swing of things' ..' during the bad weather we've all put our horsemanship on hold or just stagnated or frozen so now it's time to defrost, brush off the cobwebs and get those strings swinging and those hooves moving! Join us for a morning/afternoon of fun filled progression to help set you up for the coming summer!

Foundation Horsemanship - Intermediate 1 day clinic
This course is for those that have already had prior tuition and or experience and are looking to advance past the introduction horsemanship stages.
The ground skills or on-line segment prepares you for the use and advancement to longer lines and where appropriate gives an introduction to work in the round pen.
The ridden section aims to advance riders onwards from the introduction course and help riders learn practical skills that they can apply to everyday situations. This segment of the course aims to help riders learn how to improve your horse’s impulsion from the horse that won’t go to the horse that has too much go..
Depending on the level of course participants this course would have an element of ground skills in the morning and riding in the afternoon.
