This three-part workshop series is perfect for beginners and anyone curious about horseback riding who is not sure where to begin.

This series consists of three one-hour sessions. Participants will learn the fundamentals of horse care and daily maintenance, safe handling and movement around horses, an overview of riding disciplines and styles, and essential riding skills. 

Instruction includes how to properly mount, walk, steer, and stop a horse with confidence.

Horses, tack, and helmets are provided. The first session is a ground-based lesson with no riding.
