This statement guides our equestrian program as we use our knowledge of best practices for teaching and instruction, to create teams between horses and riders.

We focus on the foundations of horsemanship to create lifelong horsemen and women, who have respect for the animal. ​​ 

Building Respectful Horsemen for Life

Our program focuses on the complete equestrian experience. Under the guidance of expert instructors, students learn everything from basic safety and grooming to advanced riding techniques in hunter/jumper disciplines. More than just a sport, riding teaches responsibility, discipline, compassion, and confidence. The powerful bond formed between a student and a horse is a transformative experience that builds character and lasts a lifetime. Whether a student is a beginner or a competitive rider, our program offers a path for them to grow.
