New Fast Track Courses Available.

Due to popular demand Equido are offering an intensive study week to allow students to graduate in Level 1.  We hope that this will allow those students in full time employment to be able to gain their qualification during their annual leave.  The study week will be inclusive of all training, examinations, course materials etc and lunch will be provided each day.  Local Bed and Breakfast Accommodation is available a short drive away and we are happy to provide space for tents for those rough, tough hardy types!  There is also limited in house accommodation for those students who have no transport.

NEXT STUDY WEEK COMMENCING 1 MARCH 2010 BOOKINGS NOW BEING TAKEN, PLEASE CONTACT MORAG HIGGINS TO SECURE YOUR PLACE.

The study weeks are at a cost of £250 per person.  Remember this is a recognised qualification and a great chance to meet all of the instructors and trainers (human and equine!).  For further information and booking forms please contact us by e-mail.  We look forwards to meeting you all!

Student Feedback Study Week 5 October 2009

There was a great group of students attending this one week course in October and good fun and lively conversation was had by all, both during the lectures and in the evenings (when they were supposed to be studying!).  We had students from as far afield as the Isle of Bute and Southampton and all were eager to soak up the insight and knowledge from Equido Level One.  It was an intensive study week with a lot of information to get through but everyone worked really hard and not only passed all of their modules but passed them with Distinction! (What a bunch of swats!).  All are now eager to go on to Level Two and we will be trialing intensive study weeks for level two with these eager volunteers.  Here are some of their comments:-

Babs Butler (Southampton) - “Really enjoyed my time here at Ross Dhu, have learned so much and have realised what I need to do homework on.  Very intensive, looking forwards to doing level 2, thank you all, Happy People, Happy Horses Hurry for Natural Horsemanship at Ross Dhu!

Jan Clark (Stirling) -“A very comprehensive foundation course - I learned loads about how to look after a horse; a bit worrying how much I didn’t know since I’ve owned horses for years!”

Fiona Hillis (Ilse of Bute) -“Had a fab time, really nice instructors, staff, horses, family and dogs!  An absolute must for the Instructor or horse owner to have a better and kinder understanding towards their equine friends, I will look forward to passing on my new found knowledge.”

Gillian Morrison (Isle of Bute) - “The food was great! Horses and people were great!  Had a really good time”

We are currently setting study dates for next year, watch this spot for further details.
