NI Riding Clubs Training Weekend
29th October – 31st October 2010
The camp is aimed at those riding club members who wish to develop their riding skills, both on the flat and over fences, and who wish to take opportunity of the superb facilities, and excellent trainers, Tim Downes and Margie Lowry to further improve their horses training.
The riders will work on improving balance and confidence towards better riding
The fiat lessons will work on improving the horse way of going which in turn should improve the rider’s dressage scores.
Each rider will ride, Friday evening and twice on Saturday & Sunday.
Tuition is in small groups, with the main focus being to develop greater harmony between horse and rider. Riders may choose between show jumping, flat or a mixture of both.
Apart from the excellent educational benefits of the camp, members enjoy a fun weekend of socializing with likeminded people.
Accommodation is in the Mahon’s Hotel Irvinestown 5 minutes from centre.
Tim will be assessing riders from 6pm to 8pm on Friday, so arrive when it suits.
