Only just saw this, I'm booked in with Tony for a 4hr 1:1 on 19th April - and my work is paying for it as one of our yearly 'perks'
I'll be up for a group session again maybe May depending on how far we get in the 1:1.

Will check with work in the morning. Better check my bank account too, as Tony needs £180 to confirm booking. |

Its all relative - He works out about 20 quid an hour....Any form of training is more than you think amigo...Compare it to... Ski lessons which are 30-50 quid an hour Wanna learn to pole dance - http://www.poledancingschool.com £52.50 an hour  hahahahaetc etc etc |

Tbh, before i had my first training session with Tony, I was a tad apprehensive with the price But I can tell you it is worth every penny, the skills he teaches you, allows you to progress with you riding so much further! 100% recommend Jon - £50+ to learn how to spin round a pole!!!  I'd much rather buy some new barsCool steve, how is it looking |

6th looks okay. But one thing - what are you and Noel looking to get out of the day? For me, I really want to be trying some doubles by the end of the session. I'm pretty confident on jumps - until I see a gap and then it becomes a mind thing and I lose the confidence (I guess because I can't give it a slow try first to judge the take-off before committing). I'm sure once I start doing some I'll be fine. |

I get plenty of help when I go out, but you can't beat a 1:1 session when you REALLY want to learn how to do something right and not pick up others bad habits. I suppose the other thing is that Herts Shore is purpose made from what I can gather so it has everything just waiting there for you to learn on - it's like having all your toys in one place as far as I'm concerned. I'll report back and let you know how it goes. P. |

I wouldnt mind doing another session with tony, after having to bail half way through the first one due to ilness (may get a discount because i payed for a full day and only did half lol). i can only do daytime the following 2 weeks seeing as its end of term on 8th. |
