Discovery course of horse voltige

Ardevac organizes since 2012 discovery courses in aerobatics and acrobatics on horseback in a circle, on a 13-meter track.

Intended for young people (from 7 years old) as well as adults, these courses allow you to discover a specific practice of the equestrian circus in a supervised and secure space.
From the first approach, the practice of aerobatics develops balance, agility and coordination of movements. It also brings flexibility and body control to listening to the horse's movements.

Aerobatics in so-called "circus" circles differ from other equestrian practices by the fact that the activity is always ensured by a safety lanyard. This device thus makes it possible to evolve on the horse's back, whether trotting or galloping, without taking risks.
Communicating with horses is an art, so is transmitting this knowledge. It requires patience, hard work and humility. The trainers of the Ardevac school work permanently in this state of mind in order to allow everyone to surpass themselves and overcome their own fears.

Manu Bigarnet is the educational manager of these internships: graduated in circus arts in 1990 at the Center National des Arts du Cirque, he was the only pupil of Francesco Caroli. Artist-Acrobat on horseback at the Zingaro Theater for 21 years and professor at the CNAC from 2009 to 2011, he now carries the ARDEVAC project.
