About this Event

Looking for a unique mid-day break? Join us at the Ian Millar School of Horsemanship for our brand-new "Discover Horses" program!

Discover Horses is a monthly drop-in program offered on the second Wednesday of each month (September–June). Each session offers a hands-on introduction to horsemanship, so you can join whenever it works for you. No ongoing commitment required!

During this fun and interactive hour, participants will:

  • Meet and spend time with some of our wonderful school horses.
  • Learn the basics of horsemanship, including grooming and leading.
  • Discover the benefits of connecting with horses like confidence, patience, mindfulness, and empathy.

This program is designed for all ages, no prior horse knowledge required! Whether you’re a curious first-timer, a senior looking for a meaningful new activity, or simply someone looking for a refreshing lunch break, this is the perfect way to experience the world of horses in a welcoming environment.
