Ask the Students: Can Someone Attend Meredith Manor with Limited Riding Experience?
by Samantha Capoferri-FellinInstructor, Meredith Manor International Equestrian Centre
This Ask the Students question comes from Autumn Marie Morris:
“Do any students go into Meredith Manor with little riding knowledge or experience?”
Student responses include:
- "I actually think it was beneficial for me because I didn’t come in with any bad habits that I needed to change and the instructors really worked with your level of experience and helped you progress."
Nichole - "I don’t feel I’ve learned any slower than other students that came in with horse experience, I just didn’t have any preconceptions that I might have to change."
Lisa - "I don’t feel like not having any experience hindered me in any way, it kind of left things as a blank slate for the instructors to be able to fill in, and there’s less for them to have to fix."
