Joanna and Rosie, Mother and Daughter duo:
Have come together to create a club for all children to be able to enjoy competing on their Hobby Horse. Hobby Horsing, a crossover gymnastic sport, inclusive to all, warrants recognition in the UK.
You do not need to be a member of the club to take part in the shows. The membership (Open from May) will give members special benefits and offers for events with our company and fellow hobby horse companies within the UK to help build this new community. Please fill out the membership enquiry form on our website to be informed of membership details in the next few weeks.
Living on Teesside, Jo and Rosie witnessed children at local livery yards, parks and play areas playing and enjoying their hobby horses and really felt passionate about getting further children involved.
With Hobby Horsing having a huge following in Europe, it is now going from strength to strength here in the UK. It’s very much accepted in Europe as a gymnastic sport and often, children will be seen practising in parks and public areas. Consequently, Joanna noticed a lack of events for children and adults catering for this ever-growing hobby and with it, a community for all to enjoy.
Joanna feels very passionately about Hobby Horsing been recognised as a sport in the UK, as with many other parts of Europe, particularly Scandinavia.
The equestrian world really needs an element that makes it inclusive and accessible to all, regardless of previous equestrian experience, background, colour, or creed.
