Riding lessons from Certified Horsemanship Association instructor. Other training certifications include Horse Agility Accredited Trainer and Judge, Equine Trail Sports judge and Western Dressage Association of America certificate holder.

Private lessons for adults, taught by a CHA certified adult instructor, using your horse or mine. I teach the enjoyment of horses and riding, as well as training for competition. So, whether you want to trail ride, or compete, I teach it all with safety in mind.

Well trained, well mannered horses, whether you are first timers, or advanced riders. I have several breeds of horses, trained from trail riding, to trail competition, to in hand horse agility, to showing.

Training is also available. I teach horses how to be good citizens, and a joy for their owner, while communicating it to them on their level.

We also offer a one day Life On A Horse Ranch program for all groups, from Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts of America, to home school groups.

Meet the Business Owner

Kathy R.

Business Owner

I am a Certified Horsemanship Association instructor, a Horse Agility Accredited Trainer and Judge, an Equine Trail Sports judge, and a Western Dressage Association of America certificate holder. I began taking riding lessons when I was 4, but did not acquire my first horse until I was 23. I am certified to teach both English and Western. All of my horses are not only used for lessons, but are ridden by me as well, to keep them fresh and happy to work. I consider them my business partners, as well as my friends. My love of horses and riding inspired me to become a certified instructor, and share my love of horses with people of all ages.
