Do I need riding experience?

No. This course is groundwork-based and suitable for participants who are comfortable being around horses but may not have extensive riding experience.

Will we ride during the course?

The main six-week course focuses on groundwork, and in-hand (ie. not in the saddle). Ridden application may be available as an optional add-on for suitable students or regular riding lessons are available too.

Can I bring my own horse?

Absolutely, yes! Please ensure this is arranged prior to your lesson, as space is limited for float parking, and horses are subject to approval based on suitability, health and safety. No stallions are allowed at this time.

Is this suitable for nervous riders or handlers?

Yes. This course is a great option for people who want to build confidence around horses in a calm, structured and supportive environment.

Is this based on Monty Roberts’ methods?

The course is informed by Kaili’s training under Monty Roberts, including principles of Join-Up, pressure and release, body language and trust-based communication. It also incorporates extensive recognised equine behavioural science and practical groundwork skills.

Is this suitable for children?

This course is best suited to teens and adults. Younger students may be considered depending on experience, confidence and suitability.
