Each session will last approx 1 hour and will include the correct fitting of a side saddle (supplied on the day) to your horse, then you get on and try it under the watchful eye of Rebekah.
For those who attended the first session, Rebekah will be able to work with you on moving on with your horse. The saddle will again be fitted and further instruction on now to improve.
Bring friends and cameras for this excellent opportunity to see if enjoy this wonderful elegant way of riding.
You will need to be wearing a fitted riding hat to current BRC standard, riding gloves, and long boots without buckles, (in addition to your regular riding wear).
