Riders begin in private (one-on-one) instruction to learn proper technique/skills. Each lesson begins with each rider prepping their horse/pony for the lesson by brushing and saddling. This helps develop confidence both on the ground and in the saddle.
Once independent and confident, riders are placed in group lessons with riders similar in age and level. Safety is always at the forefront of each lesson while maintaining a progression suitable to each group. Whether your goal is simply to enjoy exposure to horses weekly or pursue the show ring, we do our best to accommodate all levels or aspiring equestrians.
As in any sport, repetition is key to riding horses. Strength, conditioning and proper habits are the core of a good athlete. The more consistency in lessons, the more riders feel progress and can be goal oriented.
All lesson spots are weekly and can also be semiweekly.
HUNT SEAT RIDING LESSONS
All Lessons — One-Hour Instruction
If riders are interested in pursuing jumping lessons, we recommend taking lessons twice a week as flatwork is
just as important.
Riders must have a solid seat, hand, and leg in order to jump. Taking two, solid weekly lessons will ensure a proper and safe approach to jumping for both horse and rider.
Any student in our program who remains super passionate about riding and horses is encouraged to inquire about our lease program or consider a purchase their own horse/pony.
