If you are looking to return to/ take up horse-riding or seek horse connection, book one Get Ready to Ride gateway session, Fridays at 2 pm; Saturdays at 4 pm.
You will then be placed in a riding stream or a horsemanship connection stream.

Why horse-riding? Not just the adrenaline and drive, also the quiet connection and rhythmn of working in tune with a beautiful animal. Plus physical fitness and mental balance. And new friendships with like-minded people.

For an informal chat or come-see, do drop in to the ERS Summer Show this Sunday (30th August 9am-4 pm) to find out about costs (Term multi-packs available), how long it takes and T&C's. All will be most welcome.

Student New Term starts 5th September! Current youngsters should book in 5th - 13th for assessment & placement for the new term. You will be stronger, fitter and braver than last year!
5 levels & promotion badges for children from Start to Ride to Advanced, weekdays and weekends. Plus Friday Pony Clubs
New Joiners welcome with no entry cost.
Why take up horse-riding for children? Confidence, good friendships, skills, off screen connection & communication, the outdoors, and the grounded mental health that working (and playing) with horses & ponies give.
If you wish to know more, do drop in to the ERS this Sunday Summer Show (30 August 9am - 4 pm), observe and chat to our Staff who will be there to greet you and discuss costs (term multi-packages reduce fees), what to wear and what to expect when you learn to horse-ride.

There’s something magical about drawing from life. 🐴✨ A real horse. A room full of artists. The quiet concentration, the laughter, the little moments of discovery — and watching a blank page slowly become something of your own. My workshops are about more than learning to draw. They’re a chance to slow down, get creative and experience something a little different. Whether you’re an experienced artist or haven’t picked up a pencil in years, you’re welcome. 🎨 Come draw with us — next workshop bookings are now open. 🔗 Book your place via the link in my bio.

29 nationalities rode/ connected with horses with us last year and we are proud to be part of that horse-loving global village.
English language can be a barrier for some (some of them brilliant riders, some missing their home horse connection) so, by request, we are running 2 courses this summer, starting July 21 and August 18, run by a T.E.F.L trained senior BHS Coach to aid Equestrian English Language.

New! Live horse drawing taught session starting this Sunday afternoon 15.30. in the Shelter at the Equestrian School. All levels, novice to advanced. Materials provided.
