Usually in school or in clubs, children are told not to horse around horsing around means to act badly. But in south London, there is a club that loves it when students horse around. The Ebony Horse Club is a riding school for children from poor families. General Manager Naomi Howgate runs the team that operates the school. With the help of volunteers, they give about 140 rides each week to children. They teach not only horseback riding but also important life skills. The club recently reopened its stables. They were closed for months because of the coronavirus pandemic. The program’s eight horses have returned to their home after a long rest outside London in East Surrey. Across the road from housing for the poor, young people are again learning how to ride. They begin by learning how get on the horse, or how to mount. Then, they learn how to walk, trot, and finally canter the horses. These are specialized terms for how a horse walks or runs.
