How lovely that you are interested in joining our association! On this page you can read how to enrol to our association and read our most frequently asked questions. Please pay attention that this is an association just for students. You can only enrol if you study at an HBO or a university here in the Netherlands.
You first step to enrol is to send an email to secretaris@cavenecadas.nl. In this mail you will state your interest in becoming a member and if you have ever ridden a horse in the past.
After you have done that, the secretary will reach out to you about a trial lesson. To become a member of our association, it is mandatory to do a trial lesson. During this lesson our instructor will judge which riding level fits you the best. After the lesson it is up to you to decide if you want to become a member or not. IMPORTANT! trial lessons don't take place every week, which means that there is a chance that you will end up on our spare list.
After the trial lesson you will receive an email from the secretary, in which we ask you if you want to become a member. If you want to become a member then the secretary will send you all the needed information and will ask you to sign some paperwork
If you have signed the papers and read all information carefully you can send them back to the secretary. After you have done that, you are officially a member of Cave ne Cadas.
