This is what our members say

I have been a happy member of Nijgraaf for many years. It is a friendly club where everyone is welcome, from recreational riders to sub-top level riders. There is a wide variety of lessons, competitions, and clinics on offer. Every week, I take part in one of the dressage lessons, where each rider receives truly personalized instruction. In addition, the grounds are well maintained, which I, as an equestrian photographer, naturally love to make use of. For me and my horse, it's the perfect match!

"When I was 10, I started at the Ten Bosch riding school, and when I got a pony to look after, I joined the club. I learned so much and had a great time. And not just with horse riding. Also with my friends and the groups of friends that formed. I'm still friends with some of them!"
Kimberley Stein
De Nijgraaf is a friendly club with a growing membership. Fun events are regularly organized for young and old (such as the Bixie Kids Club days, but also dressage and jumping clinics). All in all, it is a friendly club for young and old. We have been members for six months. Our daughter is taking Bixie lessons to regain her confidence in herself and in riding. These lessons lay the foundations for pony riding in a playful way. Soon she will be able to move on to club lessons with her friends. Lessons are tailored to individual needs and given by passionate instructors who try to help their students reach a higher level in a calm and horse-friendly manner. Fun clinics are also regularly held to increase knowledge. Nijgraaf is also the right place for competitions. All in all, it's a fun and friendly club."
