BE PREPARED CAMPS

#LEARN | #CONNECT | #GROW |

BE Prepared Camps offer riders a friendly, supportive and expertly guided way to build skills, confidence and connection. Held at four regional venues, each two-day camp blends mounted coaching with practical workshops, demonstrations and Q&A sessions delivered by our Regional Lead Coaches and specialist contributors. Whether you’re preparing for your first BE80, returning to the sport, or looking for structured pre-season training, the camps provide clear, welfare-led guidance for both horse and rider. Open to members and non-members over 18, they’re a brilliant opportunity to learn, practise and enjoy eventing as part of a like-minded community.

CAMP TESTIMONIALS

Diane Johnson

“At the conclusion of the course and having discussed goal setting with Richard I now believe that BE80 is within my reach at some point in the future, something I doubted I would ever do again.”

CAMP SCHEDULE

A typical BE Prepared Camp runs over two full days and includes a mix of mounted sessions, workshops and practical demonstrations. Riders usually take part in one dressage or flatwork session, one showjumping session and one cross-country-focused lesson (venue dependent). Workshops may cover topics such as rider mindset, fitness routines, saddle fitting, tack checks, season planning and horse welfare. There’s time for discussion, socialising and questions throughout, creating a relaxed, supportive environment where every rider can learn at their own pace.
