Riding Lessons

Learning to handle and ride a horse is great fun. We cater for all levels from absolute beginners to experienced riders. We have a variety of quiet school horses and ponies for children and adults of all riding levels.

Lessons are conducted by our experienced, patient instructors. From time to time we may also have visiting instructors who will provide specialist lessons such as jumping, etc.

All riders must have an initial private lesson to determine their riding ability. Riders will then participate in group lessons matched to their ability (maximum of 4 riders).

Learning to ride requires regular practice therefore we recommend that riders have weekly lessons. Riding each week means that you develop skills and confidence much more quickly than if you ride just every now and then. These lessons are scheduled 12 months a year based on the Queensland State School Terms. If you decide to ride on a weekly basis you will need to book a permanent lesson so that a spot is reserved for you for the whole term. This means you ride at the same time each week with the same group.

If you want to ride on a more casual basis give us a call and we will let you know when we can fit you in. Permanent bookings always take priority over casual bookings.

We are happy to adapt our program to meet your needs. If this means a private lesson this can be accommodated. However we cannot stress enough the importance of the social aspects of horse riding by being part of a group.

We provide structured riding lessons for children 5 yrs and older and adults of all ages.

We provide lead-line pony rides for children under 5 yrs.

As well as learning to ride we encourage clients to learn how to handle a horse (ie catch, groom, tack up etc). CCHP provides private and group Horsemanship lessons by appointment.
