YOUR JOURNEY
Whether you seek a worldly adventure or to boost your skills, we are here to guide you on your journey.
Your time with us is all about growth—refining your position, deepening your understanding, and becoming a more thoughtful, effective rider. Through a combination of mounted lessons and unmounted learning, you’ll strengthen both the theory and practical application of equitation.
Each day you will gain unique insights, sharper skills, and greater confidence in the saddle. Not only will you achieve visible progress, but capture the tools to keep growing long after the program ends.
CURRICULUM
As a long-standing academy of equestrian sport, we use a step-by-step approach to help our students pursue their goals.
Our 10-day curriculum (Monday to Friday) is an intensive program running from 9 - 2pm. During this time, students learn riding theory, show horse management, and receive two riding lessons per day.
At the end of the course, students receive a Certificate of Completion along with a formal letter outlining the program and acknowledging their participation, commitment, passion, and global engagement. This letter may be suitable for inclusion in North American university applications, helping to distinguish the student as a dedicated and internationally minded applicant.
In the evenings and weekends, students participate in non-equestrian activities to broaden their personal horizons and explore the many amazing attractions in beautiful Vancouver. These services are provided by our marketing and operational partners who help ensure our students receive a world-class experience.
