Riding Lessons, Adults & Seniors

Many of our adult students are new to riding or have been out of riding for a while. Many are novices starting after years of wanting to give riding a try or own a horse. Some adults were once 'amatuer owners' and showed the circuits when they were younger.

If you are new to riding, don't let your age or fears keep you from trying this hobby/sport. We will be sure to focus on skills that will increase your self confidence around the horses and in your physical abilities as a developing rider. You will find nothing but supportive tutoring.

If you are currently a rider or rode years ago, we can help create a program to meet your needs whether they are to be a more proficient and safe recreational rider or if you have competition goals that include competitive trail or endurance, dressage, jumping / eventing or even the local show circuit. We love all sport horse disciplines and are focuse on biomechanics and resistance free training methods.
