Here is a small description on our Instructing program.
Instructing lessons are for a person of any age wanting to learn how to ride, or that wants more skills with horses.
Just starting out with horses for the 1st time, or If you’re experienced, & need further schooling. We can help you at any level of experience. Anything from trail riding to performance, we can help you improve on your skills with horses.
Everyone can benefit from lessons regardless of experience level. To work together as a team, horse & rider must gain each others trust & respect from the ground up, a process much easier when an instructor is there to help.
You can’t control a horse from his back, if you don’t have a willing partnership on the ground first.
In order to improve a horse we work on getting the rider better.
We work on improving your riding skills, to make you a safe competent rider so your horse is safe as well.
We will help to improve your knowledge on what is needed for riding & having a horse, including everyday care from feeding to maintenance of your horse, health, saddles, tack & more!
We offer weekly lesson discounts, which includes 1-2 hour trail rides with our more advanced students who have completed beginner classes.
