emphasis on balance, respect for horse, self and
team mates, mastery of basic horsemanship skills

Students may join the riding academy upon turning 7
years of age no matter what riding level they are
at.  Lessons are often taught in a group setting of
no more than 3 children. Lessons last for 1 hour.  
Students are required to learn ground skills such
as independent leading, proper tacking and
un-tacking of horses.  Riding skills range from
beginner to advanced in the Academy but students

skill level.  Students may advance through testing
