I can’t quite believe it’s already the middle of January, so I suppose it’s rather late to be saying ‘Happy New Year’! But I can say that I hope 2022 has started on a positive note and that you’re looking forward to a year with fewer restrictions on our freedom than we’ve had for some time. I’ve been busy getting the Team Chapman Equestrian diary organised and it’s already filled with dates for our popular Coffee and Cake Club and 2-Day Training Camps. So here they are for you to browse - they will fill up quickly so don’t hang about!
TCE Training Camps
These are held over two days and include lunch on both days, one evening meal and one night’s stabling (for your horse - I can recommend local accommodation for you!). Each attendee gets 2 private lessons with me, test riding practice, a Pilates session aimed at riders, a Baileys feed advice session AND test riding with a British Dressage judge.
There’s the option to include more nights stabling and additional lessons, things which people coming from further afield are often interested in adding on. Our facilities are fantastic and include a new indoor school and a clubhouse with bathroom and shower. We have lots of fun, and both you and your horse are guaranteed to learn a lot. Here are the dates (so far - more autumn dates to follow) for 2022 which are all weekend dates unless stated:
The 19th & 20th of March
The 9th and 10th of April
The 5th and 6th of May (midweek)
The 4th and 5th of June
The 20th and 21st of June (midweek)
The 9th and 10th of July
The 6th and 7th of August
All you need to do to secure your space on a Training Camp is get in touch with me here to discuss dates and then pay £75.00 as a deposit.
TCE Coffee and Cake Club!
We held our first Coffee and Cake Clubs in 2021 in our super new indoor school and clubhouse and they proved to be very successful and wildly popular! They are usually (but not always!) held on a Thursday and involve an hour-long lesson, with up to 3 fellow riders, followed by coffee and delicious cakes (home-made, of course) in the clubhouse. The sessions start from 10:30am and we run them until 7:30pm in the evening so that there are times which work for parents, young adults in education and those who work in the day. We will be running these throughout the year, but the next three dates are:
Thursday the 20th of January
Tuesday the 1st of February
Thursday the 17th of February
You can book your space on the website or by getting in touch with me here and on social media. If you have any questions about my camps, lessons or the Coffee and Cake Club, just drop me a line!
