We know we aren't the cheapest place in town.... but we don't want to be. We set our rates so we can offer the absolute best for you and your horse. We won't nickel and dime you for everything just to make it look cheaper. We have a highly professional staff; Experience counts in the welfare, health, safety, and success of you and your horse! Students also get support between lessons or training sessions so they never feel alone if they need help between sessions. In addition to mounted instruction, our clients learn about general horsemanship, tack, horse care, things they can do for themselves and horses - in and out of the saddle - to enhance their relationship, performance and comfort, plus so much more.
Our clients tell us that's worth EVERY PENNY!
