Our Lesson Program

The benefits of working with horses go far deeper than just a fun after-school activity. Children who work with horses regularly see an increase in confidence, determination, and patience. Signing your child up to work with horses will help develop valuable leadership and communication skills. It will teach them the value of hard work. Children who work with horses find themselves spending less time on screens and more time developing lasting friendships with other horse-loving children.

Each of our horses has their own unique weight limit that ensures that they stay safe and healthy.    This weight limit is based on the horse's age, condition, size, and the job being asked of them.
