English-style riding is a style that originated in Europe, but is popular throughout the world. This class will focus on learning the basics of English riding: safety, grooming, dressage, proper mounting and dismounting, and so much more.
Riding skills and equine knowledge will be built up from week to week, assuring a well-rounded foundation in riding. Each student is responsible for his or her own equipment.
