Description: Want to have fun with your horse? "Play Days" at Fina Vista Farm were born from people asking if we could offer "pony camp" good times for adults as well, offering fun for all ages. These days focus on building your relationship with your horse using some riding exercises, dressage for gait and a variety of games and obstacles. A portion of the fun-filled day will be in the outdoor ring and a portion out in the woods. Fina Vista Farm is located in the lovely rolling Oak Hills just East of Stirling, and the trails in the woods will be where we head after lunch. PlayDays are for any level horse and rider, but it is a requirement that you feel comfortable enough with your horse that you can leave the "safety" of the ring. We will also be playing some Horse Soccer, taking a relaxing trail ride and enjoying some fun, friendly competition and also enjoying a fantastic midday break with local specialties on the menu! So grab a few friends or family and get in touch to book your PlayDay.
Your host: Camilla has been riding all her life, discovering the joys of gaited horses 19 years ago. She and her family own Fina Vista Farm where she offers lessons, clinics, trail rides and leasing on her Paso Fino Horses. She has placed at Nationals in the US 10 times (winning in Obstacle Challenge and Freestyle in 2014), won Craig Cameron's Extreme Cowboy Race, the Canadian and North American Wind Rider Challenge, performed Musical Freestyles and done many demos everywhere from Toronto to the World Equestrian Games. Come meet her and the Paso Fino horses that live at Fina Vista Farm and always like to play!
