Horseback Riding Lessons

We offer horseback riding lessons for adults and children 8 and older. Group riding lessons are organized by experience level and age group. Our experienced riding instructors have diverse riding backgrounds, and our dependable horses are used year round - which means we know them very well. We carefully choose a horse suitable for each riders level and personality - click here to meet our horses! Students will have the opportunity to ride in our indoor arena, outdoor arena, on trails, and once ready, through our cross-country course. 

​

Ready to schedule? Send us an email. Please include riding experience, if any. An instructor will get back to you. Please include the following information in your email: The name, age, height, weight, and riding experience, if any. Please also note days and times which are NOT convenient for you.

 

One of our instructors will return your e-mail with their available days and times and from there, schedule your weekly lesson slot. At times, we must place people on a waiting list, but we will contact you as soon as we can. Once you are scheduled, fill out our application and bring with you to the first lesson. ​Lessons run from 8 a.m - 7:30 p.m.
