In these classes you will learn how horses communicate with each other and how to gain their respect, by ultimately becoming their leader and how this is accomplished. What do you need to know to own and care for a horse? Grooming, feeding, catching, exercising–we will cover all of this, along with gaining basic knowledge of the tack needed for riding and how to saddle and bridle a horse. You will have opportunities to ride through an obstacle course and possibly on South Mountain. We will also take a field trip to a horse show and to an auction where tack, horses & other livestock are bought and sold.
Things you will need: hat, gloves, water bottle and close-toed shoes.
Spaces are limited to 8
