Introduction   Environment   Hidden away behind Lei Yue Mun Park and Holiday Village on Hong Kong Island, Lei Yue Mun Public Riding School is situated in a peaceful location in close proximity to the hub of Central, making it a heaven for those who wish to escape for an hour or two to relax and exercise.   Professional Training   Trains students up to the British Horse Society (BHS) Stage III Riding and Care   Riding Lessons   Primarily caters for Cantonese speakers with limited English speaking lessons   Riders are colour-coded to ensure that groups are of a similar riding standard   Most lessons have to be group lessons of 6 riders per class   Due to the long waiting list for beginner riders, the best way to get to the top of the list is to join a summer course or take private lessons during non-peak hours. Once riders can ride off the lead rein, it is easier to slot them into a regular class.   Experienced riders are offered the opportunity to take an assessment to fit into a suitable class.   Riders are welcome to call in during office hours to discuss their riding requirements   Competition training for jumping and dressage is available on a regular basis.   Although every care is taken, riders are asked to sign an indemnity form before they start riding.   Riding Gear   BHS approved safety helmets which are available for hire at the riding school   A pair of shoes or boots with a one-inch heel   A pair of jodhpurs or stretchy, comfortable trousers   A pair of gloves   Safety Tips   Riders with health problems are advised to seek medical advice before taking up horse riding.
