Brianna enjoys working with children and adults of all ages and abilities. If you are a beginner rider, getting back in the saddle or experienced, she can accommodate your needs. We have two ponies and three horses of varying skills available for lessons in english or western seat. Our lessons are custom designed for each student with a individual lesson program and goals set by the student. Grooming, handling and tacking-up are included in the lesson to give the student confidence working around horses, as if they actually owned their own horse! Personal attention, ground work, along with riding is combined and tailored to each students ability and client satisfaction. Her lessons give confidence, are fun and safety is number one.

We also offer lease programs that are customized to the clients needs. Leasing enables the client to ride in-between lessons. Please call for more information.
