Galop 1 Federal Guide - FFE

The Federal Galops Guides® of the French Equestrian Federation offer a path of acquisition to be followed by the rider to become an accomplished horseman or woman.

More than 100,000 riders per year take Galop 1, i.e. the first level of federal riding diplomas.

The official Galop®1 Federal Guide from the French Equestrian Federation accompanies them in this first year of riding.

It shows in drawings and photos how to acquire the knowledge and skills that make you become a rider.

• General knowledge provides answers to the most common questions about horse riding in France, clubs and the Federation.
• Knowing the horse explains how the horse lives and reacts, what its needs are and how to approach it safely.
• Taking care of the horse describes the good practices of the accomplished horseman or woman.
• Equestrian practice on foot allows you to know how to move with the horse in complete safety.
• Equestrian practice on horseback summarizes the lessons of the experience lived during the sessions.

The Guide concludes with the review questionnaires which allow you to self-assess and train to take and succeed in your Galop®1.
