Nyon
Riding instructor in Nyon
Nyon sits halfway between Lausanne and Geneva, which makes it easier to staff than its size suggests — coaches travelling either direction pass through. The lakeside sports grounds at Colovray handle a lot of what happens here, and the vineyard roads of La Côte rising behind the town give running and cycling sessions a gradient without anyone having to drive anywhere.
It is a commuter town with a high proportion of international residents, many working in Geneva or for the sporting organisations based locally. Sessions cluster early morning and evening rather than midday. If you want a weekend morning, book further ahead than you would in the city — there is simply less capacity here.
Horse and stable are part of the booking
You do not need your own horse. The session includes a suitable horse matched to your level, which matters more than anything else about a riding lesson — a nervous rider on the wrong horse learns nothing except to be more nervous.
What a private lesson covers
Position and seat for beginners; flatwork and transitions for most; jumping or trail work for confident riders. Say honestly where you are when you book, including how long since you last rode.

Common questions
I have never ridden. Is that fine?
Yes, and it is a normal booking. The first lesson is mostly about getting comfortable and learning to stop.
What should I wear?
Long trousers and boots with a small heel. A helmet is compulsory and provided if you do not have one.
Can children book?
Yes, with instructors who work with that age group. Tell us the age and any previous experience.
