Where Skill Meets Partnership: The Magic of a Well-Matched Horse and Rider.

1. Perfect Lesson Horses Make Our Job Easier.

A well-trained, reliable lesson horse is worth its weight in gold. They build confidence in riders, provide a safe learning environment, and patiently guide students through their equestrian journey.

2. Matching Horses to Riders Is an Art Form.

Finding the right horse for each rider takes experience and intuition. It’s about pairing skill level, personality, and goals to create a successful partnership. When done right, both horse and rider thrive.

3. A Well-Set Arena Creates Endless Learning Opportunities.

A thoughtfully designed arena, complete with varied jump setups and exercises, allows riders to develop essential skills. From flatwork to jumping, every detail matters in building confident, capable equestrians.

Ready to find your perfect equine partner? Join us at Willow Grove Stables for expert coaching, trusted lesson horses, and a tailored riding experience. Book your lesson today!

Goat Spa Day at Willow Grove: Hoof Edition

It was mani-pedi day for the goats at Willow Grove Stables, and let’s just say—some of them were less than thrilled about their spa appointments.

Highlights of the Day:

• Vincent van Goat gave the ultimate side-eye. Clearly offended no one brought oat milk lattes or spa water with cucumber slices.

• Rocky had to be carried to the spa table. Diva behavior or just committed to the “carried like a queen” lifestyle? We respect it.

• Loki - The moment the clippers came out—instant drama. Someone watched too many reality shows and brought main character energy.

But after some reluctant cooperation, a few goat-sized pep talks, and maybe some light bribery, all toes were trimmed, and our goats were back to strutting their stuff.

Because when you’re a goat at Willow Grove, even your hooves gotta stay on point.

Happy Birthday to the fabulous Laurinda!

We kicked off the celebrations in true style this morning—with a riding lesson alongside the incredible Prosecco Pony Club crew! Horses, laughter, and a little sparkle (because what’s a birthday without a bit of bubbly energy?).

Laurinda, you’re an inspiration—not only in the saddle but also as an amazing mom and role model to your incredible kids. Your love for family shines just as brightly as your passion for horses, and it’s a joy to celebrate someone who does it all with such grace, strength, and a great sense of humor.

Here’s to a year filled with clear rounds, perfect rides, and plenty more mornings spent in the saddle with friends who know how to have fun—on and off the horse! Cheers to you, Laurinda!

May your year be as fabulous as a perfectly executed jump and as joyful as a glass of Prosecco after a great ride.

Happy Birthday, you star!

02/18/2025

Here’s to laughter, to spills (graceful and otherwise), and to the memories we sip and savour.

To the bonds built in the barn, the friendships forged, and the ponies who tolerate our shenanigans and cheers!

Happy National Drink Wine Day from the WG Prosecco Pony Club, where the only thing stronger than our riding legs is our love for good company and a well-earned glass of bubbly!

I will dance in your dreams 💫

I will gallop through your heart ♥️

💕 Love, Laughs & Canter Strides – Valentine’s at Willow Grove! 💕

They say love is in the air on Valentine’s Day, but at Willow Grove, it was in the saddle, the barn, and every perfectly posed (or not-so-posed) snapshot from our Valentine’s Photo Shoot!

💘 Magnetic therapy, infrared techniques, hands-on horse treatments? Check.

💘 Courses that tested bravery and balance? Absolutely.

💘 The most adorable Valentine’s-themed photoshoot with our horses? You bet!

💘 Almond barn cat supervision? Fierce, judgmental, and present as always.

💘 Murphy, the real Valentine’s MVP, ensuring quality control on all decorations and stealing hearts one scruffy head tilt at a time.

To everyone who joined us—you made memories, strengthened bonds, and let’s be honest… totally nailed your horse-and-rider glam shots.

For those who missed out… well, enjoy these photos while you wallow in serious FOMO.

But don’t worry, you can redeem yourself. Spring Break Barn Days are just around the corner, and you won’t want to make the same mistake twice!

Keep an eye out for dates and details—your next chance for horses, learning, fun, and legendary photo ops is coming soon!

📸 Drop your favorite moment from the day in the comments! And if your horse was extra photogenic, we won’t judge if you change your profile picture. 😉

School horses put up with a lot. That’s what makes them so special. 🦄 😇

“Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the sense.” Lao Tzu

02/14/2025

Roses are red, violets are blue,
Our horses don’t care, but we sure do!

It’s Valentine’s Day at the barn once more,
Where love is measured in hay bales (or maybe just four).
Forget fancy dinners, forget the bouquet,
We’d rather be mucking and riding all day.

Chocolate is nice, but have you tried grain?
A horse’s affection? Never in vain.
They nuzzle, they snort, they steal all our cash,
Yet somehow, we love them despite all the stash….

So here’s to the ponies, the geldings, the mares,
To heart-shaped hoofprints and tangled-up hairs.
To the barn friends we cherish, the laughs that we share,
And the smell of manure that clings everywhere.

Happy Valentine’s Day to our Willow Grove crew,
We love our horses and maybe humans too.

Trish ❤️

Gratitude for Our Barn Community

A full morning of lesson fun, and we can’t help but feel grateful for the incredible adults who make this barn feel like home. From parents to mentors, coaches to cheerleaders, you show up—rain, snow, or shine—to support, encourage, and lend a helping hand.

You tack up ponies, zip up coats, hold horses, share wisdom, and celebrate every small victory. You set the tone for a community where everyone feels supported, whether they’re learning their diagonals or chasing big dreams.

Thank you for being the heart of this barn. We couldn’t do it without you! ❤️🐴

12 Things to Remember as We Enter Horse Show Season 🏆🐴

1️⃣ Everyone has bad days. Everyone gets nervous. Everyone makes mistakes. Even the pros. Even that rider who always seems to have their life together. It happens. Shake it off.

2️⃣ You can’t learn how to ride in a competition without actually going to one. So be brave, enter the ring, and go for it! Worst case? You get a great story out of it.

3️⃣ Don’t be afraid to ASK FOR HELP. Seriously. There is no prize for struggling in silence.

4️⃣ Set your goals—for each show, each class, each round. “Survive without forgetting my course” counts as a goal.

5️⃣ Every disappointment is a learning opportunity! Yes, even that rail down. Even that “creative” dressage test. Learn from it, and come back stronger.

6️⃣ Stay humble—every class has a winner, and it won’t always be you. (Unless you’re bribing the judge, and we do not recommend that.)

7️⃣ Don’t watch others go and then start second-guessing your plan. Stick to your game. You’re not suddenly an Olympic rider just because you saw someone else take a different track.

8️⃣ Be a competitor, but be a horseman first. Your horse doesn’t care about the ribbon—but they do care about how you treat them.

9️⃣ Support your fellow riders! Being a good sport and engaging with people makes the whole experience better. Also, good show friends make the best post-round therapy sessions.

🔟 Reflect on each performance. Even if the only takeaway is “Next time, eat something before my round so I don’t pass out.”

1️⃣1️⃣ After the show, ask yourself: **“What did I learn?”** (Hopefully not just “White breeches and ketchup don’t mix.”)

1️⃣2️⃣ Have FUN. Laugh off the mishaps, enjoy the moments, and don’t sweat the small stuff. It’s a horse show, not life or death. Unless you forget to bring coffee. Then it might be.

What’s wrong Almond?
❓
The Guardian of the barn is looking very serious.
😻
Almond is definitely missing everyone in this cold snap. Be prepared to cuddle her when the weather warms up.
