Rookie Rider & Learn to Ride Program
The Rookie Rider program was developed by nationally certified coaches to offer kids (aged 6 to 12) a safe introduction to horses – with an emphasis on fun! With these fundamental skills for horseback riding in any discipline, the children will finish with a strong foundation to continue in the learn-to-ride program.
At the end of the program, you’ll receive a progress report detailing their growth and a certificate of completion. Rookie Rider has been developed by nationally certified coaches and will be run by NCCP and Equine Canada certified coaches at Ironstone Farms.
Program includes:
Group warm-up games
Basic gymnastics on mats
Horsemanship skills such as grooming, tacking up, and horse awareness for safety
Riding and vaulting skills on a barrel “horse”
Riding a horse or pony on a longe line
With these fundamental skills for horseback riding in any discipline, the children will finish with a strong foundation to continue in the learn-to-ride program.
