Horsemanship Camps

Welcome

Twin Elm Training welcomes you to our 2008 Camp Season.  We believe that combining smart horsemanship with riding we provide a safe and more enjoyable approach to learning about the horse.  Our goal for campers is to encourage appreciation for the horse from the ground, as well as riding.  To ensure everyone has a great time and is safe we are offering two levels of camp,  Beginner and Intermediate.  Our first goal is to provide a safe learning environment for all campers.  Our Camp Directors/Instructors are experienced professional horsemen with years of teaching experience.  Along with qualified instructors, Twin Elm Training has an equine staff of seasoned veterans.  All of our camp horses were chosen because of their pleasant and willing attitudes. These special creatures exhibit endless patience as many campers learn through trial and error to become accomplished riders. Twin Elm Training also provides and requires all campers to wear a certified safety helmet while riding.
