HOLD YOUR HORSES is a training session designed to take place in the open field situation where Rider is trained to be able to recognise the appropriate speed for the level at which they wish to compete.  Horses have no speedometer and therefore the only way of recognising these speeds is to experience them.
Included is recognition of appropriate speed for different types of fences and the importance of these decisions being taken at course walk.
For the first time this year competitors at BE lower levels are to be permitted stopwatches.  Training in their use will be included.
Enhanced rider-safety is the aim of the training and to this end a large number of bitting systems will be available to trial.
There is no ACTUAL jumping in this clinic.  The focus is purely on your control in the open field scenario ... if you cannot control your Horse when there are NO fences it is unlikely that you are going to be able to when there are!!

Over 50 Pony Clubs from Cornwall to Scotland have availed themselves of this training and found it extremely useful to ALL levels  of rider.
Time penalties are frustrating!
Out of control is FRIGHTENING!!!

There will be groups of 3 for 45 minute sessions (usually more than enough to tire both horse and rider)
