You are able to have a walk or trot around sitting on a pony with an experienced pony handler and rider helping you. You can even just sit on one of our ponies if you don&#8217;t feel confident to walk around. Learn how you ask a pony to walk, how to ask it to stop, go in a different direction and how to use the saddle and bridle so you and the pony are both safe and comfortable. Learning to ride is only part of it, it&#8217;s being able to have a friendship and a mutual respect between you and the pony which is a big part of learning how to ride. It is great fun, very enjoyable and can be very rewarding too.<\/p>\n<p>Below: Toby being ridden<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yeboyes.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_1836.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2753\" alt=\"DSC_1836\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yeboyes.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_1836.jpg\" width=\"798\" height=\"633\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yeboyes.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_1836-300x238.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.yeboyes.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_1836-250x198.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learning to ride a pony is something that can be very rewarding and therapeutic.
