The Aubagne branch of the Marseille FSS has been open since the beginning of the 2015 academic year to riders who can prove that they have a good level of practice and whose professional project is in line with the STAPS training offer.
The Aubagne branch is a small structure with limited capacity, offering only horseback riding as a sport specialty. For safety reasons, this sport activity requires more restrictive prerequisites and consequently more "selective"; this is the case of horse riding. We pay particular attention to the accuracy of these prerequisites, (in particular the justification of galops, galop 5 being recommended).
