Minds & Manes

We have decided to do things a little different this October holidays.
We won’t be doing our usual camps or clubs as my mother in law is getting a knee operation, so won’t have extra child care.

This year we have decided to do a meet the ponies .

Are you looking to get closer to horses and ponies again? But nerves are getting in the way?

Has your pony mad child left you holding on to the pony and you’re wondering what to do next?

This club is about…

* Building your confidence around horses and ponies

* Getting to know and understand different types, breeds and personalities

* Learning how to approach, catch and handle horses safely and confidently

* Understanding horse behaviour and body language — what are they trying to tell you?

* Learning how to groom, lead and care for a pony

* Developing your understanding of everyday pony care

* Learning how to build trust, connection and a relationship with a horse

* Developing your ability to read a horse’s mood and respond appropriately

* Learning practical skills such as grooming, picking out feet, tacking up and basic stable management

* Building confidence through groundwork, games and fun activities

* Learning how to feel calm, safe and in control around horses

* Meeting other adults who are horse-mad, horse-curious or simply looking for something different

* Having the opportunity to progress at your own pace, without pressure to ride

* And most importantly… having fun with ponies! 🐴❤️

One of our wonderful clubbers asked if they could read a story to velvet . The books we have are focused around wellbeing . So here we have velvet hearing the story “you’re a star” all about self -esteem .
It’s fair to say velvet 100% is a star and she was very interested in listening to the story being read to her 🦄❤️
