Lessons
Our lesson program is designed for dedicated students who want to learn how to ride hunt seat. From beginner to advanced, all riders are welcome. Our focus is that our riders not only learn how to ride they understand the horse itself. We also expect our students to learn and practice horsemanship which builds self confidence and responsibility as well as knowledge. We encourage our students whom are interested in horse shows to participate in two lessons a week. This however is not required. We also offer special rates for those who have their own horse and are interested in boarding and taking lessons. Lessons take place rain or shine with Saturday make up lessons available and we are flexible with scheduling around other extracurricular activities.

Students are encouraged to travel to horse shows as a competitor or as a Pony Pal.

Pony Pals
Pony Pals are students wanting to learn by participating at Horse Shows. These students travel with our Academy to Horse Shows. Each Pony Pal will be assigned to one of our student’s showing. The Pony Pal is responsible for helping that student while at the show. Whether the Pony Pal helps bathe, groom, or making sure their student is on time for his or her class; this program is designed so that inexperienced students have the opportunity to experience Horse Show activities while building his or her self-confidence as a rider.
