Horseback Riding Lessons

Saddle up for a beginner’s  Horseback Riding Lesson

Horseback Riding Lessons for adults and children, ages 10 and up.

Our Horseback Riding Lessons are different than most. They emphasize horsemanship just as much as riding, helping students build a true partnership with the horse from the very beginning.

We start with grooming and tacking, then move into groundwork. During this phase, you’ll learn how to communicate with the horse from the ground in a round pen—developing trust, understanding the horse’s mindset, and building a connection rather than simply controlling movement from the saddle.

Once effective groundwork and communication are established, riding skills are introduced and developed through hands-on Horseback Riding Lessons.

Our lessons are not held in an enclosed riding arena. Instead, Horseback Riding Lessons take place in open areas and wooded trails, offering a more natural and practical riding experience.

Lessons are geared toward the Cowboy–Cowgirl Western approach, focusing on clear communication, confidence, and real-world riding skills.

Cost: $70 per/hour*

* Adults and children, 10 years old and above.

My mother and I were visiting the Charlotte area this past weekend and my sister suggested horseback riding with her and my niece. The area as we drove was beautiful to see and more exciting walking to the office! We fed the all horses a few times before the start. The gentleman that signed us is was very welcoming and when we went to saddle up the two handlers were very patient and careful with helping each rider on our desigated horse. I really appreciated the radios that were attached in the middle and back of the line. Our guide for the ride was so sweet, knowledgeable, considerate, and fun. She informed us of a farm that is not far by (which we did btw and also a blast). The scenic route was peaceful and a little adventurous. The other riders were a joy to be in our new unforgettable memories! Thank you all so very much. I can not wait to ride Shian, again 🥰🖤🤎🤍🐎

We came here for a birthday and we enjoyed it. The horses are gentle and very well behaved. The instructor was reassuring and checked up on us throughout the trails. Had a great time, i definitely recommend!

Such a great venture for me and hubby, and we can't wait to bring the kids next time! The staff is great, the owner is so friendly and laid back, the horses were all amazing (though Winter and I became great friends), and the trail was so peaceful - we even saw three young bucks! I definitely recommend coming here for a ride and the drive was beautiful in and of its own. Looking forward to our next ride!
