Do you love horses? Do you feel like you need a break from London? Then the Equestrian club is the right place for you.
This sport is great for improving mental health and boosting confidence. Spending time with like-minded people (& horses!) will greatly benefit your university experience. We offer both recreational and competitive sport opportunities including weekly riding lessons for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders.

Tickets go on sale every Thursday till Sunday. If you cannot attend a lesson, PLEASE contact us at least 24 hrs (6pm tuesday) before the lesson. Tickets are non-refundable if cancelled less than 24 hours before.

Horse-riding in London is expensive, so we have a ‘come as little, or as often as you like’ policy with lessons... feel free to ride every week or once a month! We also understand many people are not able to ride, but love horses... so we will be providing as many low-cost horsey activities as we possibly can!
*prices and location of lessons subject to change depending on cost of living. We will do our best to keep riding as affordable as possible.
Want to compete? We have a BUCS (British Universities & Colleges Sport) team!
Over 160 teams take part in the Equestrian competition and it runs throughout the year in a combination of leagues and events.
Don't have a horse to ride? That's okay. All BUCS riders compete on a borrowed horse from the host team's riding centre.
Riders compete in both dressage and show jumping, where their combined scores make up their final result. BUCS team riders should feel comfortable riding unfamiliar horses, completing a novice dressage test, and show-jumping a 90cm course of 8-10 jumps. Each individual in the team rides a different horse and you are scored against the riders on the same horse as you (in rider style & effectiveness).
We train plenty during the year and we'd be thrilled if you joined us! If you would like to compete or want more information, send a quick summary of your riding experience to Francesca.
