Private Lessons:

Through our Private Lessons we teach both ridden and in-hand techniques.

Focus is on the rider / handler’s position and technical knowledge as well as teaching a systematic approach to the refinement of the rider / handler's hand, leg, whip and seat aids. Lessons are taught according to Ecole de Legerete (School of Lightness) principles. With respect of the individual horse at its heart this approach is a logical and progressive method of horse training encompassing relaxation, balance, impulsion, flexibility, mobility and collection/cadence while developing straightness.

Riders are taught how to achieve the best and lightest results from any given horse, at the appropriate level for their age and training.

Private Riding Lessons are available for most horse and rider levels, we offer lessons on our school horses or on your own horse. Please note that the minimum age for lessons is 15yo and there is only very limited availability for beginner lessons on Blinkbonnie School Horses.

Private In-hand lessons are available for horses from foal age upwards, including lead and tie up training, lunging, in-hand techniques and pre-breaking work.
