Lessons

Duration of lessons ½ hr - 1 hr
We encourage private tuition here at Chateau de Laumiere. The emphasis is on fun and learning at your own speed.
We have a wide variety of horses for absolute beginners through to horses which have competed in all 3 disciplines. If you do not want to ride alone, semi-private lessons (2 or 3 people) are available.
Children are taught at first for ½ hr and for their safety are on the lead rein.
Any pupil can benefit from a ½ hr lunge lesson either to help with building confidence or to improve balance and position.
Lessons are available for flatwork, jumping and cross country.
If school riding holds no appeal you can (after initial assessment) have a lesson whilst hacking out.
