Lessons:

Have you always harbored a life-long dream of riding a horse but didn’t know where to start? Are you an advanced rider looking to improve your skills or begin competing? No matter where you’re at, Dallas’ training program can help you reach your goals.

With am emphasis on safety, confidence and of course fun, students will learn not just how to ride but also how to be good horsemen and horsewomen. This means understanding the fundamentals of horse behavior, gaining respect and control through groundwork and how to care for your horse (grooming, saddling, bathing, routine care, etc).

In Dallas’ barn, there are seasoned lesson horses available for you to learn on. If you are new to riding, you will most likely ride Lena. Lena is a one-in-a-million lesson horse who has taught many people of all ages and abilities how to ride. She is calm and patient and really enjoys her job. Students love her!

Private Lesson Fee: $50.00 / hr
  ($5 discount for cash)
