We want to teach you the language that horses use to communicate with each other so that your relationship with your horse is free of frustration and fear. We believe that you can ride in companionship without the use of punishment - to either you or your horse. We believe that you are learning this sport as a way to get back in touch with who you REALLY are - free of judgement or ridicule, and away from the stress of your every day life. We believe that no matter how far you go with it - from brushing a horse to jumping a fence -
You Are Successful.
We believe that you don't need a show ribbon to prove your worth. We believe that you don't need fancy riding attire to 'look the part'. We want celebrate with you when your ride is fantastic. We want you to say when you are scared, or frustrated, or just plain mad. We want to be the voice in your head when you are troubled. We want to share the love and passion for this sport with you - even when it's not easy.
We believe that there is no greater satisfaction than the contented sigh of a horse after a good ride.
We believe that riding is a fun hobby, a challenging sport, a glorious art form, and an all consuming passion.
We believe that we come together to teach each other and create confident riders and Good Ponies!
One and a Half Hour Time Slot: If you don't own your own horse, that's ok... use one of ours! These horses are not your usual "school horses" - they are privately owned, well cared for and specifically chosen horses that meet our strict criteria for training you. Includes groundwork, grooming horses, cleaning tack, cleaning stalls, first aid, equine equipment, etc. Whatever YOU want to learn, it is YOUR Lesson!
It's no surprise that owning a horse is a lot of hard work. Having a professional on hand 24/7 is the best way to guarantee safety and security. Please give us a call, and let's talk about what you and your best friend need!

Owning a horse can be a monumental task, and often there is a break in communication. We are proud to introduce this new program - a one time comprehensive evaluation, discussing practical and philosophical changes in order to move you both forward in a positive direction. We will discuss every aspect of your relationship with your horse - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
No long term financial or time commitment.
