Due to the nature of the course you will need to be confident handling a horse including lifting their limbs. A degree of physical fitness is required as this is a practical workshop.
Please wear comfortable but close fitting clothing (overalls are ideal) and boots suitable for a stable environment. The majority of the course will be outside so warm clothing which can easily be removed during practical sessions. If you have a stool or box to stand on please bring this with you — portable mounting block or box you stand on to plait. This is not essential but it is physically more tiring massaging while reaching up.
Please note: This course is for adults 19+.
