Discover Polo: £110
You will go through a graduated programme of learning the rules and tactics, the polo swing and polo riding on a polo pony that is geared to your level of riding experience - from the non-rider to the experienced rider.
Then after some 'stick and ball' practice at hitting the ball from the pony, you will play a chukka to put your new skills into practice and have some fun!
Optionally, after the lesson you can take part in additional Instructional Chukkas. You can further develop your new found skills with other players who are also just getting started in the sport.
Discover Polo & 1 Chukka: £145
Discover Polo & 2 Chukkas: £180
Discover Polo Plus £165
During the 1 1/2 hour Discover Plus!™ Lesson, we will build on the work done in the Discover Polo™ Lesson, taking you to the next level in your polo career! It features more time on horseback and an instructional chukka is included in the price.
