Frequently Asked Questions
    At what age can my child begin taking lessons?
    A rider can start in our lesson program at the age of five. Since most 5-8 year olds do
    not have the physical strength or attention span required while riding for 30 minutes, 15
    minute leadline lessons are available.

    I am in my fifties and have never been on a horse before.  Is it too late for me
    to take lessons?
    Riding is an excellent sport for people of all ages! It is never too late to start riding and
    enjoying the benefits of this physically challenging activity.  Additionally, every
    Wednesday at 10:30 am we have our Adult Group lesson that is a great way to meet
    and mingle with  some of our adult riders.

    I am interested in taking riding lessons, but, do you only teach English style?
    While we specialize in Saddleseat, we also offer instruction in Driving, Dressage, Hunt
    Seat, Jumping, and Western Pleasure.

    What will I need for my first lesson?
    For your first lesson, please arrive early to read and sign our Release of Liability form.  
    You will need to bring with you long pants and hard soled shoes or boots with a heel -
    no sneakers please.

         What are your fees?  
         Our fees and offerings are based on the excellent level of care our horses and
         their owners enjoy.  Please use our "Fees" link on the left to see our rates for 2010.  



    One Last Thought...
    While several breeds can carry a saddleseat saddle, we use the American Saddlebred as
    our horse of choice as they are most suitable for the job.  Schedule a lesson today and
    find out why riding and showing an American Saddlebred is such an exciting experience.
