Never stop learning.

Our year-round Riding School program emphasizes horsemanship, equitation, and safety, developing confident riders of every level from beginner to advanced.

We consider our program a delicate balance between a school and a sport. Our leveled curriculum is unique to our program and is proven to produce successful riders both in and out of the show ring, as well as providing a clear and well-laid-out path of progression for riders and parents to follow. Students receive a comprehensive equestrian education, from horsemanship to riding and everything in between. We view our riders and horses as athletes, and cultivate an atmosphere of teamwork and camaraderie between all ages and levels of riders. We work with students as individuals to reach their goals and help them turn their dreams into reality!

Equestrian sports are shown to develop confidence, independence, responsibility, empathy, courage, resilience, and sportsmanship in riders of all ages.

It’s so much more than just heels down.

Lessons are offered six days per week in private and small group formats. Beginner riders start out in private lessons, learning the basics in preparation for joining a small group of riders of similar skill level. Riders with previous riding experience will start with an evaluation lesson to determine in which group they will best fit. Group lessons are shown to enhance learning by allowing students to watch and listen to others, develop their skills working around other horses, build friendships, grow confidence riding with an audience, and continue learning while their horse takes a breath.

All Riding School students are taught proper horse care skills as a major component of our curriculum. We are passionate about developing not just skilled riders, but skilled horsemen! Students learn how to and are responsible for catching, grooming, tacking, and untacking horses, as well as cleaning tack, at every lesson. Additionally, students all partake in at least one unmounted horsemanship lesson per month. Independence, horsemanship, and safety are paramount in our program.

Our School Horses

Casper

12.2hh Welsh Pony gelding

Casper is an experienced show pony who is loving the life of teaching little equestrians the ins and outs of riding! He can still jump around a solid course, but is the perfect teacher for first-timers too.

Buster

13.1hh Paint gelding

Buster belongs to one of our students, but graciously spends half of his time as a school pony. He's a super well-rounded guy and a favorite amongst our beginners!

Leo

15.0hh Appaloosa gelding

Leo has the biggest personality in the barn, which matches his loud leopard coat perfectly! He’s suitable for beginner to intermediate riders.

Peyton

16.2hh Quarter Horse gelding

Peyton is a favorite of all riders, big and small! He is safe enough to teach beginners, but talented and educated enough to jump around courses!

Pricing

Students with prior riding experience will begin with an Evaluation Lesson, which is $75 and lasts about 90 minutes. We will cover unmounted care and expectations before and after the ride, and riders will demonstrate their current skills in the saddle to help determine where they will currently fit in our program and curriculum.

Students with no prior riding experience will begin with our Pony Passion course, a four-lesson course that takes the time to teach students the all-important ground handling skills and safety they need to be successful in the barn. Upon completion of Pony Passion, students should be self-sufficient in catching, leading, grooming, and tacking their mounts for lessons.

Just like with any other activity, the more you ride, the more skilled you will become. Our monthly tuition format guarantees your rider the same day and time slot in our schedule every week, and offers consistency and the best value.
