Horseback Riding Lessons

We offer horseback riding lessons for ages 5 and up and levels in Western

and English disciplines.

Our beginning horseback riding lessons allow children (and their parents)

to find out if horsemanship is something that they want to pursue seriously.

They will learn how to groom and tack a horse and how to ride in Western

or English disciplines. They will increase their balance and coordination and

gain self confidence. Horse and tack are provided.

Advanced riders generally own or lease a horse and join our equestrian team.

Private horseback riding lessons focus on individual skill development and

problem solving techniques. We train the riders to be aware of their horse

and ways to achieve the desired movement from their horse. We are teaching

more than just how to ride; we are teaching riders how to train.

The following series of Solutions-Based-Thinking questions is commonly used:

What is your horse doing wrong? (What is the problem?)

What do you want him to do? (What is the desired result?)

How can you get him to do what you want? (How can you achieve that?)

Summer Camps

We offer a limited number of Equestrian Day Camps each summer that allow children to immerse themselves in horseback riding and barn activities. These are 3-day horse camp programs designed for children between 6 and 12 years old. Small session sizes ensure that each child gets individual attention and adequate horseback riding time.
