Time and again, I see some really wonderful people drop off from the horse scene altogether for one or more of the following reasons:

✴️ Pressure to abide by an "all or nothing" mentality

✴️ Feelings of guilt for taking time away from family

✴️ Not enough time due to school and/or work

✴️ Unable to financially commit to a training program

✴️ Being forced to show

✴️ Pressure to own your own horse

✴️ Impossibly restrictive scheduling parameters

🤔 Sound familiar? I don't believe in a "one size fits all" model to having horses in our lives. In fact, I am a huge proponent of maintaining a healthy Barn-Life balance! If you are looking for a place that welcomes working professionals, busy parents, and people with otherwise full lives, come ride with us!

🐴 We are not just another kids' lesson program. We have horses suitable for competent adult amateurs and experienced riders who want to ride, but still have time, energy and resources left for things outside the barn.

✨️ Come rediscover the joy of riding without the pressure to give up the other wonderful things in your life. Whether you can dedicate one hour a week to the barn or ten, you CAN get your horse fix, fill your cup, and then go be the best version of you in all the other areas of your life, too!
