RIDING LESSONS

Here at A M Equestrian we love to share the joy of riding with others. Our staff are experienced and enthusiastic, and tailor each session to the riders ability, confidence, and goals. No matter your equine experience we have a coach to suit!

Riders are fitted with a helmet and riding boots, then begin with a quick grooming of their horse. Our coaches assist with saddling up, before guiding riders out to the arena for their lesson. Expect to learn anything from the very basics of grooming, tacking up and mounting, through to perfecting your dressage and jumping skills. We can also focus on any specific goals you want to work towards!
