Our group lessons are one hour. Your child will learn to brush, saddle, and ride a horse, and a variety of barn chores that will further their confidence, responsibility, and safety.
What your child will learn at the barn…
Compassion. Learning how to take care of the very young and very old. Making sure those without voices are well taken care of.
Responsibility. Learning how to take care of someone other than yourself.
Communication. Learning how to communicate to someone who cannot speak our language. Only body language, soft spoken words and quiet movements work best.
Sportsmanship. Learning to accept the differences in people and horses. Not everyone rides the same and learns at the same speed.
Self esteem. Learning how to groom, tack and ride a horse is a big accomplishment in itself. Good for you!
Goals. Your child will want to set goals for learning how to ride a horse. Maybe even to buy a horse someday.
Friendship. Many friends to meet at the barn. Some are animal friends, too!
Hard Work. Grooming, saddling, & cleaning a stall is all hard work. Our students take pride in what they do and feel good about their accomplishments.
