Riding Lesson Options:

​

Private Lessons. One on one coaching with our awesome staff and horses. Most riders only need one or two private lessons before advancing to Semi-Private, or Group Lessons.  However, if because of special needs, or a very irregular schedule, you need ongoing privates, the price is $85 per class. Ongoing privates are typically only available on the weekdays, during the day. Weekend and after school we offer semi-private group classes. 

​

Semi-Private Lessons. 2-3 riders working with one instructor. This can be siblings or friends, or we can match you with another rider. Riders do not have to be exactly the same level as our staff is skilled at teaching riders with different experience levels.  Most classes include some horsemanship and some riding.  Semi-Private lessons can be one time, or on an ongoing basis. 1 hour, $65 per person. 

​

Group Lessons. For riders who are willing to commit to a weekly program, group lessons are a great option. Groups are 4-6 riders of similar age and level who meet on a weekly basis. Riders must be able to ride independently to be invited into a group lesson.  Group lessons run September through May, but you may sign up at any time if space is available. 

     1.5 hour group is $300 per month (for a 5 lesson month). 

     2 hour group is $350 per month (for a 5 lesson month).

     Group gaming lessons start at $375 per month and are invitation only.

​

Pony Time. Group fun for little riders. Designed for kids aged 3-7 years old. Each child must be assisted by an adult. Kids will groom the ponies and go on a fun pony ride. Most times we go on the pony path in the woods, but we can also ride in an arena if the group prefers. 45-60 minutes depending on the size of the group. $50 per child.

​

One-time Evaluation Ride. If you are interested in weekly riding lessons, we would like to get to know you before placing you in a class. You will start with groundwork and spend a few minutes learning to groom and tack up your horse. Then you will mount up and spend the rest of your hour learning/or working on riding technique. Yuu can work one on one with a riding coach to discuss your riding goals. After your evaluation your coach can fill out an Evaluation Form so that we can place you into a group or semi-private lessons. 1 hour, $70. Please note: this option is only for riders wanting to enroll in our weekly lesson program.
