- Come and learn about working on foot, working in freedom, long reins ...... 

- For the youngest equestrian games are a good way to progress in a more fun way....

- Come and discover the Hunter, it consists of chaining an obstacle course with the greatest possible harmony. The hunter is different from the show jumping. It is not a ranking of horses and riders in relation to their speed, but a classification in relation to their style. The rider must be perfectly in tune with his horse, and vice versa. To make the ranking, the judges rate the rider/horse pairs in points. The hunter can be considered as an intermediate competition between dressage and the horse show.

- Private lessons and group lessons are also on the program.

 

Rates (small groups and 2 supervisors): 

  •  60 € the course for the 1/2 day and 220 € for 4 courses over 4 days.
