Throughout the year Academy Bartels offers training arrangements on a regular basis. Guests are welcome to come for a four-day arrangement (Monday morning - Thursday afternoon) or a six-day arrangement (Monday morning - Saturday afternoon).

Every training arrangement starts with the arrival of the guests and their horses between 10.00 am and noon and an introduction around 1.00 pm. The training arrangement includes one training per day, together with two other riders. Lessons generally last an hour. Apart from the riding lessons the program includes a lecture by Joep Bartels covering sport psychology. Accommodations are available in the hotel situated on the grounds of the Academy. The rooms are partly based on self catering. The first dinner is prepared by the Academy staff. Together with the other guests and Academy staff guests get the chance to make acquintance with each other. The other evenings guests are free to prepare dinner in their rooms, or to enjoy a nice meal in one of the surrounding restaurants for which they can use dinner coupons which are given out by the Academy. During your stay at Academy Bartels there are also opportunities to watch Tineke and Imke in training. On the last day your instructor (Tineke, Imke or Micha Koot) will evaluate the week with you. Non-riders are welcome to accompany riders.
