Beginner / Intermediate Rider Programs
Our beginner rider programs focus on teaching your child everything that is involved in horseback riding and horse care. They will learn how to properly and safely lead, groom and tack a horse under the close supervision of one of our qualified instructors . Once they have accomplished these tasks, they will be taught how to mount a horse and ride at the walk and trot. At the beginner rider level, our riding programs focus on teaching sound riding fundamentals while emphasizing rider safety. It is our belief that mastering the fundamentals of riding will help build rider confidence, thus allowing the rider to advance their skills at a faster pace. Intermediate level riders will be instructed at the walk, trot, canter and over fences. They will be challenged so as to improve their riding. We also utilize riding games which, while being fun for your children, also teach them how to control their horse, and improve their balance and confidence in the saddle.
