Riding Center Horsemanship Camp

During the summer, Dana Hall School Riding Center instructors offer an intensive and fun-filled camp.

Campers develop their skills in riding, horse care, and stable management. The program focuses on hunt-seat equitation and emphasizes safety, learning control, correct position, and on developing confidence at beginning through advanced levels. Each rider experiences a classroom without boundaries that inspires discipline, responsibility and teamwork. Hands on activities and demonstrations enable children to explore all aspects of horsemanship and discover the secrets of the equine mind. Riders have the opportunity to participate in both a gymkhana and a camp horse show during their time at camp.
