"There is a unique connection between children and animals."
Recent studies show scientific proof that children who engage with animals have significantly lower stress hormone levels than those who don't. As our philosophy is working with the "whole child," in this case, "the whole rider" we also believe in working with the "whole horse." In other words, we enjoy teaching about the horse with a holistic approach. Each horse has his own personality that the camper will get to know. Their relationship with the human, the interaction, feeling and reaction of the horse is part of the training. Each rider will learn how to groom, saddle and take care of the horse, in addition to riding. Most importantly, campers will discover and meet a new friend…with four legs and a tale! Our instructors’ wealth of knowledge and ability to work with riders of all levels creates the perfect learning environment. Each instructor has 15+ years of riding and equine experience, as well as many years working with children both in and out of the stables, providing an educational lesson for riders of all ages and levels.
