Mini Me Pony Sessions - following the great success of A.J.P.C we were finding parents and carers wanted to know if children aged under 6 could attend. This present T.U.E.A the perfect opportunity to launch a new programme that catered for our most youngest members of community. Our Mini Me Pony Sessions are open to 3-5 year olds who want to enter the world of equestrianism. We provide a fun, interactive, safe and rewarding programme where we understand the pace, fears and challenges our Mini Me members have. The safety of your child is of the utmost importance to us. So we are always re-evaluating our policies when it comes to safety and risk assessment. Horse riding for preschoolers and toddlers can be an integral part of their early years development and fantastic preparation for their future A.J.P.C enrolment.

From a very early age we want to introduce our Mini Me Pony Sessions members to the very rewarding world of equestrianism. Horse riding and horse care are key components of this programme. For the vast majority of our youngest members of the community it will be the first contact they have with a horse. We want them to face challenges with the full support of our team, working at their pace to develop and connect with horses. We provide a friendly and compassionate environment with the assistance of their parents/ carers/ guardians where they can grow and start to develop an amazing relationship with horses. As a team, we are inspired by their commitment, courage and joy. They are our future and we must support the early years of their development - confidence is key! We give them the opportunity to participate in horse riding and horse care from such an early age. We open eyes to a very rewarding hobby that can lead to a incredible career in the equine industry. That journey starts from now.
