The RDA National Training Centre is an inspirational Equestrian Centre for RDA Volunteer and Coach Training & development as well as running commercially as a riding school with an impressive 5* license. At the NTC, we provide opportunities for both disabled and non-disabled participants to learn to ride - from our beginner and therapeutic sessions to those wanting to compete. don't worry you can

still come along and enjoy our Centre by:
- Hiring our facilities
- Booking a lesson or clinic with one of our coaches
- Having a go on our mechanical horse (great for rider fitness, building strength and improving position)
- Booking onto one of our Sunday events.

A dedication to Harvey Morris, who sadly passed away aged 17. Harvey's family felt strongly that through "Harvey's Defibrillator Collections" our facility should have a device. We couldn't be more grateful and honored by this and would like to thank anyone who has donated money in Harvey's memory to help install more defibrillators in rural communities. πŸ’š

πŸ“”πŸ“” RAISED POLE CLINIC DATES 2024! πŸ“”πŸ“”

Right folks, after an INSANE response to my previous post asking if there would be any interest in doing some special raised poles clinics the answer was a resounding YES!!

Grab your diaries and make a note of any of the following that would be of interest to you!
Bookings are not open yet and won’t be for another few weeks for the ones in September and October, but the one at moulton college will open very soon and be a raised poles clinic!

Please note that these won’t be suitable for horses just coming back into work as your horse will need to have a good level of fitness, neither will they be suitable for horses who haven’t been to pole clinics before or who aren’t familiar and confident with polework, and if you’re rehabbing your horse please check with the industry professional treating them that raised poles are a suitable exercise for whatever they are rehabbing from!

Spaces for these will be limited and these clinics won’t be repeated this year, but I will keep a waitlist for each venue, so if you want to be the first to know when the bookings open, message me ( don’t rely on me seeing comments on this post, if you definitely want to get onto the waitlist you NEED to message me!) and let me know which date/venue you want to be notified about.

People on the waitlist will be told when bookings open 48 hours before I officially open them on here so they will get the first opportunity to book. Once you join the waitlist there is ZERO obligation to book, it just gives you chance to jump the queue when bookings do open, so you’ve got nothing to lose!!!

Remember to MESSAGE me to go onto a waitlist and you can join for as many different venues as you like, however I will be using the same layout for each clinic if you did decide to come to more than one!

I still have one space an available tomorrow at 10am for a regular pole clinic at Marslands farm for just Β£21.50 if someone wants a last minute fun outing… again message me to grab this space! πŸ€—πŸ¦„πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜ŠπŸ˜‰πŸ₯³πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ΄

[Gifted] Thank-you for stopping by Equine Bio Genie delivering a bespoke service for treating yards and event centres across the UK and beyond.
It's a great feeling when the yard has been made "Bio" Secure. The process is easy and the treatment meets Medical Grade standards, is 100% biodegradable and organic compliant. It leaves no residue and yet it's highly effective in eradicating all equine bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores.

Horses' teeth are amazing!
Ever wanted to know what's going on inside that cute head? At the centre we are lucky enough to have a skull to use as a learning tool in our classroom sessions, which enables us to understand more about these wonderful creatures.
