Safety & Fundamentals

The Safety and Fundamentals Class is where our horsemanship journey begins. This class teaches riders how to safely catch, lead, tie, groom, and saddle a horse. They will learn basic horse care and riding at the walk and trot. We will also teach them safety precautions while riding such as the one rein stop and emergency dismount.

Beginning Horsemanship

Once a rider has completed our Safety and Fundamentals course they will be ready to move up to our Beginning Horsemanship class. This class puts an emphasis on horsemanship under saddle and on the ground. Every rider will learn how to lunge a horse at the walk, trot, and canter both on the line and in the round pen. They will work towards becoming comfortable and confident riding their horse at a walk, trot, and canter in any situation. We will also begin to introduce more advanced riding topics such as pivots, side passing, collection, elementary rolls, roll backs, etc.

Intermediate Horsemanship

After becoming a confident, controlled, and calm rider both on the ground and in the saddle, our riders will be ready to move on to the next step in their horsemanship journey. Intermediate horsemanship expands on the skills learned in the beginning horsemanship class. They will become fluent in all horsemanship skills such as roll backs, two tracking, collection, side passing, disengages, elementary rolls, 360s, lateral flexion, etc. In this class riders will have the opportunity to work with more sensitive and responsive horses learning about horse psychology, habits, quirks, and how to best maintain their horse’s mental state.

Intermediate Horsemanship with Competition Preparation

This class offers all of the perks of the Intermediate Horsemanship class with an extra emphasis on the skills that will be most helpful in a competition setting. This class will also give riders the eligibility to lease a horse (half lease or seasonal) and join our gymkhana team. It is a fun way to meet riders with similar goals and interests as well!

Advanced Horsemanship

In advanced horsemanship riders expand on the skills learned in Intermediate Horsemanship with an added factor: speed. Riders will learn how to do advanced maneuvers with their horse at all ranges of the walk, trot, and canter all while maintaining accuracy and control. We will break down the horse’s body shape, flexion, collection, and biddability until horse and rider become one of the same in a partnership built on mutual trust, respect, and horsemanship.

Advanced Horsemanship for Competition

This class offers all the same as the advanced horsemanship with some added competition opportunities. Riders will be eligible to join our barrel racing, rodeo, and junior rodeo teams as well as lease a horse (half lease or seasonal). Riders will learn how to prep their horse for competition via supplements, body work, conditioning, and slow work. They will learn how to properly care for their horse after a competition to help give them a short and successful recovery. In addition, riders will learn how to keep a horse mentally sound through extra hauling opportunities such as time onlies, workshops out of barn, trail rides, etc. Lastly, riders will learn how to handle emergency situations while hauling and at competition such as when and how to administer medication, wound care, etc.

These first lesson will focus on horse safety and information about horses as well as learning to groom tack and ride!
Most children and adults alike find out it is much harder than they thought and much different than trail rides. Riding takes lots of building muscle memory and learning balance, coordination, self reliance and leadership. These things take time and consistency. First months lessons we will share lots of horse safety, horse information and get them riding to see if in fact horses are for them.
after you request and receive your PO or Certificate from your school
