Kennedy Farms Equestrian Summer Camp Week 3 (Advanced)

Intermediate/Advanced camp sessions are designed for students who are able to walk, trot, and canter with confidence and are able to jump small courses. Students are divided into groups within each camp based on their experience and riding ability. All students are taught horse safety and care and learn the proper methods for grooming, tacking, leading, and mounting. Students also learn the gaits important to English Riding, proper position and balance, the correct use of posting diagonals, and how to ride in the two-point position. Emphasis is placed on establishing a balanced and secure seat, instilling confidence, and laying a foundation for further development. Students with a greater skill level will apply their knowledge to jumping cross rails and low fences.
