Horse Riding Questionnaire

If you would like to stay on a farm with horses complete the following questionnaire to help us understand your previous experience. Any riding opportunities depend on your ability. It is up to the host to decide if you are capable of riding any horses that are on the farm when you are there. Riding is not guaranteed for the the safety of both you and horses. If you want the opportunity to ride at the farm you must submit a video of yourself riding so this can be assessed by the host. Ensure the video highlights your skills and posture while riding. If you have photos of you jumping over 1 metre for example these can be useful. Sitting still or being led around a stable on a horse does not provide sufficient proof of your ability to ride. If this is all you can do on a horse you should not expect to ride. This program is not a riding school or riding camp. Any riding is a reward for all the hard work that is done around the farm during the week and the chores done in the farm house each day.
