Equestrian Clinics & Instruction

Yara Balba Stables offers instruction to riders with their own horses and at the moment has a small number of riding horses available for lessons. We hold regular, specialist, equestrian clinics and training activities most months. We run accredited programmed, riding lessons at our boutique equestrian facilities in Mandalong (just off the M1 Freeway near Morisset NSW).  Contact us for the latest info.

Proudly, Yara Balba Stables was one of Pony Club Australia’s Foundation Accredited Riding Centres, delivering the new PCA World Renown Equitation Science based Syllabus (2020). Yara Balba Stables is also a Nationally Accredited Delivery Centre for the combined Equestrian Australia, Australian Sports Commission and PCANSW “Ready Set Trot”  and “Trot Canter Gallop” innovative learn to ride programs.
