MAUREEN JONES - SHOW JUMPING

Maureen is an experienced instructor and is very good at assessing both horse and rider’s ability.  Maureen will not expect you to jump anything you do not feel happy about, but you may be surprised how you can build up your confidence through the session by watching others and enjoying yourself.

SHOW JUMPING LESSONS at BLEWBURY CENTRE, DIDCOT
