Well - for what cost approx £100 more than a standard trackday (I didn't pay that much!!!) I was dissapointed.
I was in the advanced group - advanced senility I think! - and there was no strong instructor presence, they were around, but you had to go and find them, despite was was suggested at the start.
We were told we would be in strict grid format and our instructor would find us and there would be after session de-brief etc, but not one instructor spoke (or even tried to) to me !! There were only 7 people in my group and there was plenty of room on the track (especially as there was a dearth of instructors!!!) so that was good, but hardly by design!!
There were classroom sessions on suspension and some track craft but it was a bit hit and miss. There was one session on track psychology that I thought was very good, but again you weren't really encouraged to attend, and I stumbled upon this one.
Maybe this style suits some who can take or leave the sessions as suits them, but I do prefer the CSS, the structured, more regimented style of their teaching suits what I'm looking for on an instructional riding school.
Perhaps if I was in the Novice or Inters group there may have been more encouragement or teaching - who knows.
But for that kind of money, I was expecting a bit more. If anyone's attending one, be sure to push for the instruction and advice etc, it is there, but you have to go a huntin' !!!
Enjoy
