PERFECT YOUR POLO GAME THIS SEASON..
Improve your polo game or take your first steps in the saddle
Polo is the fastest team sport in the world and has no parallel in adrenaline and excitement. You may find yourself drawn to the speed and challenge of polo or to the experience of combining your passion for horses with a team sport.
Never ridden before? Not a problem! We teach you everything you need to know, so that you feel as confident and safe as possible.
Our polo ponies are impeccably trained and extremely obedient. They know their job and they do it well. They have an innate ability to know when it’s a beginner on their back and take extra good care of them. And they often know where the ball is better than our beginners!
Don't stress if you've never even touched a horse before. We’ll teach you front from back and hoof from head, along with many other valuable basic horse skills before we start working on your polo skills. By the end of your first day, we promise that you’ll be confidently sitting on horseback with a mallet in hand.
The school isn’t just designed for complete newbies to the sport, we also offer special ‘brushing up’ sessions for low goal players to help you with any riding/swing/playing problems that may require tweaking with the help of a professional.
