These Workshops have been designed to improve rider knowledge and awareness, which
alongside technical ability are the main ingredients to a safe, happy and successful
season. They are an ideal pre-season training session aimed at developing confidence in
horse and rider.

Indoor Workshops
These full day courses start with a practical course walking session highlighting how
influential walking the correct line is to your XC round. A 1 1/4hr riding session focuses
on the balance of horse and rider whilst learning to correctly negotiate different types of
XC fences such as corners, curving lines, angles, skinnies, etc. A theory session of 2
1/2hrs covers areas such as horse and rider responsibility and fitness, developing the
correct mental approach, keeping the competition horse on the road, DVD rider analysis
using examples of different types of XC fences and looking at different speed approaches
and any other topics that are relevant.

This fully informative day caters for individual needs and offers the rider a point of
contact for any other problems that arise through the competitive season.

Outdoor Workshops
These half day courses start with course walking including discussion on course design,
distances, lines, terrain, straightness, types of canter, rider responsibility etc. Speed
training is then used as part of the warm up to gain greater understanding of different
speeds required at different levels. This is followed by cross country training over fences
suitable for the experience of the horse and rider.
