Lesson Program

Day 1

Following a brief phone call with our operations coordinator, you’ll be matched with a licensed instructor tailored to your needs. Your first session will be one-on-one, during which you’ll explore the barn, discuss your goals, and participate in an evaluation ride to assess your riding skills and horse knowledge. After this initial session, we’ll arrange for you to join our lesson program. We welcome riders of all levels, starting from the age of 7.
