Where better to learn the art of Horse riding than in Greece. Xenophon, the Athenian General wrote the first detailed book about horse riding over 2400 years ago. His philosophy was based on intuition, insight into the horse’s world and kind & sensitive treatment.
Students of all ages and experience can learn the foundations of classical riding. You will learn how to build rapport with your horse and communicate with the lightest of physical movements and even your breath! Riders must also become aware of their own bodies learning to reduce muscle tension and a lack of balance. That is why classical horse riding combines so well with yoga.
All riders will have one-to-one sessions with Deborah. Beginners will learn the foundations of correct horsemanship and experienced riders will build rapport with their horse.
