Courses and training courses
Our teaching method is more orientated towards the pursuit of a jumping style (the rider's efficacity and sobriety, lightness and elegance of the pair) rather than a competitive performance.
Riding outdoors, an essential activity for the rider who is learning, represents for many the motivation for their efforts in the School. Why not satisfy these motivations?

beginners
- Weekends and courses for the more advanced

"Adult"
beginner's lessons, 6 day discovery of riding and trek initiation
Our
objective is to make this activity accessible to all, to help discover
the close complicity that can be established between man and horse, and
to instil the solid basis making autonomy possible, as quickly as possible.
Finally we wish to persuade, that with several indispensable riding notions,
it is easy to take advantage of a fabulous means of locomotion, in order
to enter the environment and discover a natural milieu in complete safety.
