CAMP SIGN-UP
All Camp Students are given proper direction in English-style riding by seasoned equestrian professionals. All beginner riders will have a personal helper while in the saddle, plus their main instructor. We focus on exercises to improve balance and coordination, which helps them become independent as riders. In addition to riding, campers learn horsemanship and what it means to care for a horse.​
