From baby pony to galop 7, a club where children learn to ride close to their pony — with respect, care and plenty of fun.
A steady progression from a first time in the saddle to riding out at competitions.
Grooming, games on foot and a first time in the saddle. Half an hour to get to know each other, at their own pace.
Hour-long group lessons by level. The foundations of riding on a pony, safely and with plenty of fun.
Working towards the galop levels and sitting the exams. Flatwork, jumping over fences and the theory behind it.
Refining their riding and heading out to competitions for the keenest young riders.
A team of trained instructors and ponies chosen for their temperament and size — so that every lesson is as much a moment of learning as it is a moment of joy.
Meet the teamFrom age 3 on the baby pony programme: a gentle half-hour built around grooming, games on foot and a first time in the saddle. Proper riding lessons begin at around 6 or 7, in hour-long groups.
No. The club provides a riding hat and everything else for the first lessons. As your child progresses, a hat of their own and a pair of soft leather jodhpur boots are a good idea.
We start with a taster session so your child can meet the ponies, the instructors and the team. Give us a call on +33 6 81 07 84 53 or drop us an email and we will arrange a time.

Every week the pony club welcomes children from Bergerac and the surrounding villages — Prigonrieux, Lembras, Creysse, La Force, Lamonzie-Saint-Martin — as well as from Mussidan, Villamblard and Vergt, a little further north. The large car park in front of the stables makes drop-off and pick-up easy on Wednesdays and during the school holidays; just carry on about fifty metres past the manor house and the entrance is right after it.
