Flying Start Children's Riding Centre
Hello, my name is Vicky; I am the owner and head instructor of Flying Start Riding School. I first began riding here at the age of 4, then progressed to become a helper, I returned as a customer with my daughter when she turned 4, and was presented with the opportunity to become the owner in 2014. I worked in the horse racing industry with Martin Pipes, where I gained my experience and equestrian qualifications. I am committed to maintaining Flying Start’s excellent reputation as a fantastic place for children to learn to ride.
Flying Start Children’s Riding Centre has been established for over 25 years, with an excellent reputation for specialising in riding lessons for children aged 3 years and up.

Since Vicky Wyatt took over about 5 years ago the place grew so much not only in numbers but in spirt too. I believe that the amount of customers has tripled since she took it over. All helpers that go at encouraged to do the helpers course before they start tacking up and leading to ensure that the children riding and horses are comfortable and safe. Vicky and all of her teaching staff are able to cater for children of all levels and so are the ponies and horses. Vicky really helps children to grow with her positive attitude and constructive criticism. Flying start also offers extremely successful birthday party's and pony days for the the younger children and the flying start show for the older more experienced children.
