Question

Can anyone tell me any good horse riding schools in birmingham uk if so can you give me the site ?

Answer 1

Look in Yellow Pages, or the BHS and ABRS websites.

Give any that are in your area a ring and ask if you can have lessons.

Pay attention to the questions they ask you! If they just say yes, without asking any they are no good. As a minimum they should find out your level of experience, weight and height.

If you tell them that you have little, or no experience, they should advise you what to wear.

Many schools will loan, or hire, the proper hat as these can be very expensive. They should offer this, or at least mention the fact that you need a riding hat, otherwise avoid them.

Footwear is especially important, you need proper heels, trainers will no do. You may damage yourself and the horse.

Answer 2

The following links will enable you to search for approved riding schools in your area:

British Horse Society: http://www.bhs.org.uk/content/Edu-where-...

ABRS: http://www.abrs-info.org/england-map.htm

I have never lived in or around Birmingham, so cannot comment on how good the schools are.
