Mission Statement
The MudPony Riders 4-H Specialty horse program engages youth in reaching their fullest potential in the area of equine interests.
Description
MudPony Riders is a Santa Fe County 4-H Specialty horse club that offers youth the opportunity to explore their interest in horses through learning the horsemanship skills that create a foundation for further study in the equine industry. We are committed to a teaching and learning process that will provide our youth with the critical skills necessary to enjoy life-long careers in the horse industry.
Students develop a strong foundation in basic horsemanship skills including beginning thru intermediate riding, grooming, behavior and training basics, barn management, equine first aid as well as explore various career opportunities in the horse industry. This includes a strong emphasis of safety on the ground, around the barn and in the saddle.
The club is geared toward youth who do not have the financial means to either take riding lessons or own their own horse.
Our club goal is to become a non-profit school of horsemanship incorporating the new revolutionary concepts of training coupled with the classical approach of centered riding.
Participation is free.
Horses are provided.
