dingo91 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I Agree. Although I still LOVE Barnes Green. I want to keep Bertie *grins* He's my big baby. I love little Wally too. He's sweet. I take the children out on their hacks now after my lesson. Oh yeah, I love Pepper too (one of the really diddy ponies the kiddies ride). He's SO cute. I love it when kids have their first ever canter 'cos the ponies are so careful and look after them so much. Or when they have their first jumping lesson on Smartie or Cola - it's so sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bin doin some triples on Bert, who i think is really cool (even though he smells ) and doing a lot of schoolin on Sadie. Yep, Wally and Pepper are still there. Peppers really gr8 with the kids and I love wallys little beard. All the horses whos names I know who are still there are: Wally, Pepper, Cola, Smartie, Minstrel, Coco, Bertie, Sadie, Pilgrim, Mirlow, Charlie, Luna, Blaze, Tyson, Domino, Wurzel & ... that's it. Can't remember the others. My dad's girlfriend is in the middle of doing her BHS Stage 1 at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clangeroo Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 hi, just wanted to say I learnt to ride at snowdon farm too and they teach you properly. There are lots of riding teachers that will just take your money, let you trot around a bit, but youre not really riding them. - the minute you start with snowdon, you find out if you can really ride with wht your othr schools have taught you! :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H.P Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 I had been thinking about taking up riding again too,havent been for a fair few years so I could probably benefit from a few lessons.. I did'nt fancy going alone either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojoba Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Well if either of you fancy lessons at my yard Id be happy to give you the guided tour and introduce you to all the horses. I had a lesson on our yard with Denise O'Reilly the other day - she's a 'Biomechanics' rider who was a student of Mary Wanless's - she used to coach the British Dressage Team. Im still aching but it was really really useful. She basically takes everything you've ever been taught and chucks it out the window and changes your entire position and everything - but it really works! I want someone to come to my yard so we can talk about the ponies there I dont understand all the Mallards / Barnes Green chat! xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephnuss Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 HI there, I'm a german student moving to Sheffield in a shortwhile and I'd like to keep on taking horse-riding lessons. Can anyone recommend a riding school? I'm getting a bit confused with this chat Or does anyone know some horseowner needing help with their horse and giving lessons? Either in exchange for the help or paid? @jojoba: are you teaching lessons???? Where is the yard? I'd be interested in having a look around... can't pm you, is only my second post... thanks for the help, cheers, steph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojoba Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Stephnuss - no I dont teach, just a horse owner! My yard has a website - http://www.equestrian-training.co.uk. Id certainly reccomend lessons there Jo xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
