Horseback Riding Lessons
Riders are taught horsemanship from the ground up with horse and human welfare at front of mind. Students will learn not only how to ride but why they are doing what they are doing. Particular attention is paid to relationship development and lightness in the saddle.
All riders begin with private lessons.
Amy is available to travel to your facility. Truck ins can be accommodated with current negative Coggins and proof of vaccination.
To schedule a lesson, please click the link below. New students will be sent an enrollment packet via email. Traditional riding lessons are open to students age 6 years and above. Weight limits will apply based on the horse you are matched with.

Adaptive Horsemanship Lessons
For the student that needs a team of more individualized support than a traditional riding lesson may provide.
These lessons may be appropriate for individuals with diagnoses such as ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, IDD, anatomical differences, or limiting anxiety. Work with the horses may be mounted or unmounted based on the student’s needs on any given day. Lessons are 45 minutes in length.
Please schedule an assessment to determine if this may be the right fit for you or your child. The first assessment is a telephone conversation to determine if we have the skills and equipment needed to accommodate your needs. The second assessment is on the farm to get to know the student and develop a learning plan. A doctor’s note indicating that the student is cleared for participation may be required.
