About Stal Epona
It's in the name
What does Stal Epona mean? Stal is the Dutch word for 'stable' and Epona was, in Gallo-Roman religion, a protector of horses, ponies, donkeys, and mules - so, rather appropriate we'd say!
Who we are
Stal Epona was founded with one goal in mind: giving our students the best, most rewarding learning experience through passionate teaching and coaching.
What we offer
At Stal Epona, students may refine their skills in the art of dressage, or learn to jump like the pros! Children may also partake in our pony camps, where they get to experience a taste of farm life including feeding and grooming horses as well as getting hands-on experience in other farm chores.
While we are of course horse-crazy, Stal Epona is also home to many other animals including donkeys, ducks, geese, chickens, peacocks, dogs, cats and many, many goats, which our guests and students will definitely come to meet!
