Intro to Horses 101

What?

This class concentrates on what you’ll need to know about handling horses on the ground. You will learn how to safely interact with your horse, handle your horse in different scenarios around the farm, groom and tack your horse properly, basic feed and care of your horse.

When?

These classes are scheduled 2 days/week for 4 weeks straight. You will need to commit to all the dates in one class.

Tuesdays/Fridays at 4:30-6pm

• February 4 - March 7

• April 22 - May 16

Wednesdays/Thursdays at 4:30-6pm

• March 12 - April 3

Why?

After completion of 101 you can sign up for Intro to Horses 102 and take your horsemanship skills to the saddle. 102 teaches you how to mount, steer, halt and dismount, all while continuing your horsemanship skills on the ground. After completion of 102 you are bumped to the top of our waitlist and a lesson spot is found for you ASAP!

Who?

Anyone who is interested in riding horses or wants to learn more about horses! Students must be 7 years or older. If your child is younger and interested in riding, I would encourage you to look into our Pony Classes at https://www.rockmeadoweq.com/pony-class

Please check your schedule carefully BEFORE registering! Registration can be cancelled up to 48 hours before the start of the first 101 class and payment will be credited towards a future 101 class.
