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.
