Common Questions
We've Got Answers
Does my child need experience?
Not at all. Most of our riders start with zero experience. We start every new student with an Evaluation Lesson so we can match them to the right horse, group, and program.
Do we need to own a horse?
No — and that's one of our biggest advantages. We provide well-trained lesson horses for all lessons, camps, and even competition.
Is it safe?
Safety is our first priority. We provide helmets, maintain clearly posted safety protocols, and Caitlin is SafeSport trained and CPR/First Aid certified. All students are supervised at all times.
What ages do you accept?
We welcome riders from age 2 all the way through adulthood. Our Pee Wee program starts at 2; Academy lessons begin at 8. We also have an adult riding team for 21+.
How do I get started?
