On the first day of the Giddy Up cohort, we got to meet some of the riding community as well as learning the rules of the barn. We spent half of our day focusing on chores around the barn and feeding the horses. In the second half of the day, we were geared up and assigned horses. We learnt to brush and prep the horse for a ride. The highlight of the day was getting on the horse for most people's first time ever! We spent about half an hour on the horses each, as we learnt to mount and ride the horse without the help of a trainer.
