Horsemanship

Day camp 2010

At Heathermoor Farm Riding Academy, we are not only dedicated to teaching riders how to be good horsemen and horsewomen, but we also strive to help students be good citizens. This philosophy also holds true during horse camp.

Team building is a strong focus during the week. Campers work in teams to help each other get horses ready for lessons. Participants also learn how the rider and horse work together and how each contributes to the ride. Finally, the riders demonstrate their teamwork in a drill team performed for parents and friends at the end of the week.
