Training and camps

We begin with dependable foundations

Riding and archery can be learned separately, then brought together in measured stages. You can enquire without owning a horse or bow and without previous experience.

The learning sequence

  1. 01

    Relationship with the horse

    Calm presence, safe handling and a secure seat provide the first foundation.

  2. 02

    Archery on the ground

    Drawing, release and arrow handling become an ordered movement from a stationary position.

  3. 03

    Bringing the movements together

    Mounted archery begins when balance and ground technique provide a sound base.

  4. 04

    Track and competition

    Pace, scoring and run time build on safe execution.

Who can begin

Children and adults

An instructor assesses each child individually. A child needs to interact safely with the horse, follow instruction and sustain attention for the session.

Adults may enquire without previous riding or archery experience. Individual readiness sets the pace of progress.

Everyone at their own pace

Everyone starts where they are

The first sessions can be spent entirely on the ground. How to approach a horse, how to brush it, how to lead it on a halter. Anyone who needs longer at this gets longer, and it changes nothing about what comes afterwards.

Horses are not in a hurry. They answer a low voice and an unhurried hand, so anyone built that way starts with an advantage.

The simplest beginning is a visit arranged in advance. You can watch a session, see the place and ask anything, without signing up to anything.

Time well spent

Attention finds another rhythm beside horses

Caring for a horse, working outdoors and repeating an exercise all ask for presence. Children and adults learn to observe, wait and respond calmly.

Progress becomes visible in simple gestures. A knot tied alone, a horse prepared with care or a steadier seat gathers time, responsibility and growing confidence.

Training camps

Focused days on the Csiba ground

In 2023, international instructor Molnár Dávid led a three-day camp in Miercurea Ciuc for twenty-two equestrian archers. The program ended with a competition.

In July 2025, Konkoly Merse led a camp in Miercurea Ciuc at the invitation of Lőrincz Rómeó. Camps bring the knowledge of the wider Kassai community to the Csiba ground.
