BRC Training - what do you want?

As a benefit to club members, we have introduced training sessions, so far in show jumping and dressage. In the future, we hope to include (with various instructors) flat lessons, instructional dressage tests, gridwork sessions, show jumping clinics, cross country practice and also unmounted sessions structured towards specific BHS examinations. All sessions will be based either at the Club Field or at a local establishment. It would be nice if everyone could give us their input as to what they would like included.

Cross Country Training - 30 May 2009

Tweseldown Racecourse is one of Britain's premier horse trials venues and provides all-year-round cross-country schooling facilities. It has been managed since May 2002 by Brynley Powell, the international three-day event rider. Tweseldown is such a fantastic training venue catering for all abilities from first timers to advanced eventers that it has been chosen as the Olympic training venue.

Limited to 3 sessions of 5 horses per class, so reply early to save disappointment.

Each session is £40 for 1.5 hour session (Max 5 horses per session) (Incl £25 for course hire & £15 for tuition). Price may go up marginally (£5) if less than 4 per class.
All abilities will be catered for, but sessions will be organised by ablity and experience where possible so please confirm when booking experience of horse and rider.

There may be limited spaces available in trailers and lorries already going to Tweseldown from the Bookham area so please contact Vicky if you need a lift and I will see if we can help. Equally if you have a space in your box please let Vicky know.

Please email Vicky Morgan at vjcmorgan@hotmail.com with any queries or to book.
