Equine Kingdom Riding Academy - 5016 Groometown Road, Greensboro, NC
This new program
is designed specifically with the 4-18 year old homeschooler in mind! This program will introduce
your children to the joy of horses and riding. We will teach your children the basics of all around
horsemanship, including safety around horses, grooming/brushing techniques, handling the horses
safely, nutrition/feeding, health and first aid, and basic equine anatomy.
Classes will include lectures, hands-on activities, and handouts.
Students will learn about horse science, horse vocabulary words, and get a realistic expectation
of owning a horse. They will learn to have a good outlook on the responsibility and costs of owning
a horse. They will also learn to tack up and ride a horse, both English and Western.
The Homeschool Horsemanship program
runs twice a month for two hours each time. Groups of more than 5 children will be split into two
groups, with counselors/handlers helping with each group. This will be an ongoing program, starting
in January 2009. Regular meeting days will be Monday mornings from 10am to 12pm.
