RIDING LESSONS CATERING TO THE YOUTH RIDER
One unique constituent to the riding program is the inclusion of horsemanship, horsemanship, groundwork, training and horse care, rather than being strictly focused on riding. Not only will you learn how to ride, but you will learn how to handle horses safely and care for them properly.
​
All levels of riding and groundwork use natural horsemanship training methods. These methods are highly effective and develop a strong bond based on trust between the horse and handler.
​
