Following the success of the ADRC Quadrille team last year being just 1 mark off qualifying for Olympia we are about to start training to try to go one better this year! We are looking for new members to try out for the team.
If you are interested in riding in a team of four people and also like dressing up and crafting then this will be for you! As long as your horse is sensible around others and happy to be dressed up (last year they were pirate ships!) then you are welcome to come along. We will be holding practice sessions through the summer at the club field. This year’s theme is yet to be decided so your input is welcome.
This session will consist of a demonstration of a quadrille routine to music, practicing movements and then putting together and running through a whole routine. We will have Debbie Middleton as our instructor to help out from the ground. We will also bring some costume items for you to try on your horses to make sure they are happy to wear them.
The cost will be £15 to cover the instructor. ADRC members only you can join on the day.
Please message Jo Wyles on 07912159031 to book.
