Lessons
Through individualized lesson/training programs we teach foundation skills for riding on the flat (dressage), over fences and in the open (cross-country). Our focus is on developing a broad base of skills and experience from which both horses and riders can work with confidence, security and enjoyment.
Lessons also cover conditioning, sports medicine, biomechanics and other skills/information which makes for better horse and rider partnerships.
Lesson rates:
Private lessons $45.00 45-60 minutes
Semi-private $35.00 50 minutes, 2 riders/class
Group lessons (3+ riders) $30.00
Evaluation/Consultation $50/hr
Beginner Lessons
Unfortunately, I am not currently taking "beginner-beginner" students. The horses I have available require a "beginner-intermediate" skill level which means comfortable at walk and trot, posting, 2-point, and preferably started in canter.
If you are looking for "from scratch" lessons OR activities for young children, you might try one of the following:

Horse Leases
Several full- or part-leases are available. Intermediate+ skill level; depending on the rider's experience, lessons may be required. Lease rates are negotiated on a case-by-case basis, and some work exchange may be possible.
