Lunge lessons are ideal if you want to improve your balance, posture, and overall riding position. They work brilliantly for complete beginners in the early stages of learning; and also for riders who want to fine tune technique without worrying about steering or pace.
During a lunge lesson, the instructor takes full control of the horse from the centre of the school. This means you can concentrate solely on your seat, leg position, and alignment while the horse works in a controlled circle. Please be advised that our riding weight limit is reduced to 11st (70kg) for this activity.
Why lunge lessons help
- Builds balance and a more secure seat
- Improves posture and body alignment
- Helps you develop confidence without the pressure of controlling the horse
- Skills transfer directly into your next flat lesson
Who lunge lessons are best for
- Beginners who want a structured, confidence building start
- Riders working on posture, balance, or position corrections
- Anyone returning to riding and wanting to rebuild core technique
