Grossmont Adult School
We are excited to offer our Horsemanship program to the Grossmont Adult School. We offer a well rounded program to create a truly informed equestrian. Riders will learn "Basic Seat" which is the foundation for good equitation and all disciplines. Our goal is to create safe, well balanced riders with a strong seat, we employ "Secure Seat" riding techniques for this purpose. We offer on the ground training with the horse along with class room education. Students will learn basic anatomy, how to recognize and prevent common lameness and illness in horses. Round Pen work, how to correctly and safely groom, saddle and bridle. Class size is limited to ensure safety and that each rider receives individual attention and has a positive , safe and fun experience!
Please note** A certain degree of physical strength and ability is required, you must be able to swing your leg over the horse to get on and off unassisted. You should be able to lift 35 lbs and be able to be active and outdoors for two hours. Horses can only carry 20% of their body weight, the average horse weighs between 700 - 1000 lbs.
