Riding is a wonderful sport to build poise, confidence, posture and a great
attitude about the rest of the world.
|
Our specialty is equitation training for the rider. We have trained many
champion junior and amateur riders, some of whom have gone on to be professionals
themselves. Whether you like Western, Saddle Seat or Hunt Seat, the quality
of your riding will improve immensely from your first lesson. |

45 years of experience
teaching, training and showing Western, Saddle Seat, Hunter, Driving and
Halter has produced a philosophy that is low key and very classical. We
enjoy our riders and our horses. We find that communication is the key with
no shouting, just a lot of patience. |

Lessons for ages
four and older are available all week, all year round in a lighted, covered
arena. Our lessons for novice and beginning riders are one on one with an
individual evaluation of each student. Our goal is to have the lessons
be very progressive towards a positive control of both ends of the horse.
The outcome will be an elegant soft seat. Our ground lessons include all
phases of horse handling including catching, grooming, tacking up and vet
work. |

We recommend you
wear Jeans. You must wear boots with heels and a helmet. We do have riding
helmets to fit most riders. For the winter months we recommend that you wear layers. You will get warm when riding in the winter! Gloves and long underwear are also recommended. A heated viewing room is available for family and friends to watch. |
|
|
We do encourage you
to be on time for your lessons as we have other lessons that follow yours.
We require that cancellations be 24 hours in advance, unless there is an
emergency. If you cancel at the last minute it will throw the barn schedule
off.
We are often gone
on Saturdays to Horse Shows but we do welcome you to come and watch! |

Riding lessons are a great
way to enjoy horses without the cost of owning one. You or your child will
have the opportunity to see how a horse will fit into your life. You will
have the chance to learn all there is to know about the care, responsibilities
and rewards of working with horses.
