Every season we host a different themed day clinic at Megalong Icelandic Horses. This can be for example groundwork, float loading, riding the tölt. Besides the day clinics we've been lucky enough to have some amazing riding instructors over from overseas for weekend clinics. Keep an eye on this page for the upcoming clinics.
Day clinic Saturday 8th of July - Riding the Tölt
On the 8th of July we’ve hosted our first day clinic! We’re aiming to organize a day clinic every season and would love to receive your input regarding ideas for new clinics (e.g. float loading, groundwork with young horses). This time the theme was ‘riding the tölt’. The clinic included some theory about this special gait of the Icelandic horse, demonstrations of four- and five-gaited horses that show their tölt, riding the tölt yourself and of course there was a beertölt competition!
