If you have a
child that can’t stop talking about horses, or maybe you have always wanted to
try riding, NOW is the time! Spring is the perfect time of year to try
something new and learning to ride a horse offers several physical and
emotional benefits. Horseback riding and learning to work with a large animal
offers a great cardio workout and riders use leg muscles they never knew
existed! Mentally, riding is a boost to self-confidence, and gives you the
opportunity to increase your patience and focus. We offer separate classes for
kids and adults/teens. So, what are you waiting for?
