I am going to horse camp in 5 days, and the instructors aren't anybody who knows my level or experience, and usually makes me do things and ells at me. I can't really speck up for myself because I would have to yell it across the ring, where everyone could hear me, then they would probably make me do it anyway. Please help I'm stressed out here!
 
if you can't ride at there level, you shouldn't be riding there. i know that i hate it when inexperienced people ride with me, because it takes out the fun, no offense. you should ride at a camp with your level, or just take private lessons.
 
Hmmm.......that doesn't sound like a horse camp I would want to go to! In my experience, horse camp is supposed to be fun and relaxed where you can make new friends and everybody has fun. It shouldn't be a stressful experience. But, since it sounds like there isn't really a choice of whether or not to go, you should talk to the instructors at the beginning of the week and explain to them your dilemma. If they are any kind of instructor at all, they will do their best to suit your ability so you can get the most out of your lesson. However, if it's a group lesson, there's really not that much you can do about it. My advice in that situation would be to listen well and do your best and you might end up learning something. But, if an instructor tries to get you to do something that is way above your level, politely tell them no. You don't want you or your horse to get hurt in a situation like that. Overall, have fun at horse camp. Hope i helped.
