PonyShare'sPony Grooming, Riding & Horsemanship Program

Description:

This unique Program provides an exciting and inexpensive introduction to the wonderful world of equines in

a fun-filled, non-threatening atmosphere. PonyShare uses ponies and cobs, smaller and easier to handle than their larger equine counterparts.  Small groups of 4-6 children are formed according to age and prior experience –if any. After reviewing Safety Rules, materials previously covered and learning a new subject matter, participants are assigned their size-related pony or cob and each small group works under the tutelage of a qualified Instructor. Some of the horsemanship matters covered include: Safety on and around horses, Basic Anatomy, Equine Senses & Body Language, Grooming, The Tack and Harness, Driving the Miniature Horse, English and Western riding, Barn Management and Careers in the Industry. Participants also get to shortly ride or drive their charges 3 to 4 times during each Session. This Program enhances team work and self-esteem while helping develop a genuine appreciation and respect for the animals. Course Materials are provided. A winner by many furlongs, this Program tends to book early. Space is limited. Register today!
