A viewing day is essentially an informal, mini coaching session with one of our supportive and very experienced trainers. They usually last half and hour and are individual sessions, we provide a time for you to ride like a normal clinic. During the session you will warm up and work through exercises at your level.

Not at all, attendance to one session is fine. Subject to numbers, you can book into more than one viewing day, but we need to give priority to those who haven’t attended a session previously.
