Training, Lessons and Summer Camps

We at Capstone offer a number of opportunities for both children and adults to experience riding a horse, or to better their riding skills for the show pen. We specialize in coaching Youth and Amateur riders and preparing their horses for Western, Hunter Under Saddle, and All-Around competition. Horses are trained to be competitive at the highest levels, as evidenced by over 100 National or World championships, and countless top ten placings.

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?
