12 Week Intensive

A course designed to suit you

An Intensive 12 Week Riding Course

This course is perfect for students who are competent riders that already have sound practical care experience in order to gain their BHS Stage 3 Complete Horsemanship in only 12 weeks. Less experienced riders are still able to take this intensive course but they would typically choose to concentrate on achieving BHS Stage 1 and BHS Stage 2. Then they may decide to opt for further training to achieve BHS Stage 3.

Testimonial – 12 week intensive course

“I managed to make my dream job reality after my 3 month course with Wellington Riding . I achieved BHS Stage 1 , BHS Stage 2 and the PTT level thanks to the great lessons I took from really capable and enthusiastic coaches . It has been a super experience that laid the foundation of my career . I would suggest this programme for anyone wanting to get into the equestrian world . I now travel all over Europe working with GPx riders and professionally training dressage.”
