Equisimulator / mechanical horse near glos?

[Charliechalk]

Does anyone know if anyone has a mechanical horse near gloucestershire where i could have lessons? I really need help with sitting trot and it has been suggested that i have a go on one, also quite a nervous rider so finding the whole letting go and relaxing thing a bit difficult! Don't mind travelling a bit, so if anyone has used one in this area or a bit further could you post some details, thanks

Pretty sure Barton End riding school near Nailsworth has one???......or I am sure they did.

Why don't you just go down to Devon on Heather Moffats simulators?

might be worth investigating if hartpury let you loan theirs with an instructor?

Would you post after your lesson? I'd be really interested to know how you find the experience and if it is useful. Sitting trot is also my prob so have been thinking about a mechanical horse lesson too!
