Join Our Family as
Our New Riding Instructor!

We have a friendly family of owners, students, and barn personnel at our facility located in Toney, Alabama. We use natural horsemanship methods in our riding experience and we prioritize safety. Our program teaches a balanced seat in both Western and English riding styles. We also focus on other aspects of horsemanship including safe handling, grooming, groundwork, and routine care of horses.
How will you fit in?
Our new riding instructor will need to work well with people and be proficient in handling horses. You must be comfortable using natural horsemanship methods teaching all ages and skill levels. Good communication and organizational skills are a must! You will help grow the student lesson program using social media and other means. Competitive pay based on experience.
Tasks include but are not limited to:
• Teaching and scheduling riding lessons
• Growing our lesson program
• Updating our stable’s page
• Coordinating and teaching riding camps (seasonal)
• Record keeping for the lessons
• Light barn chores
Our Facilities
Oak Meadows Stables has many fantastic amenities such as two outdoor arenas with lighting, round pens, an indoor arena, and horse obstacles. Our Schooling Horses are specially selected for their dispositions and "Horsenalities". They go through extensive training before earning the badge of “Schooling Horse”!
There are separate boarding and lesson barns, both equipped with security cameras and locked gates. Our owner, Leah Imsand, lives onsite. Please visit our website for more information about us.
