The best riding school!!

Olivia Abel

I never write bad reviews, but the instructors were unfriendly and rude compared to places I have been in the past. I appreciate constructive criticism from trainers to become a better rider, but I felt like I was just being yelled at here rather than coached. Riding should be fun but the trainers took the fun out of it

As a 35+ year veteran of riding/training/showing programs, I can say that this is a good lesson program. People mention inflexibility in some reviews, and that's because they work with a limited number of school horses that they don't want to exhaust. School horses are limited to 2 lessons a day and 2'6 fences. This might sound limiting, but the trainers put together different courses and exercises for every lesson that lay down fundamentals. They will throw in extra challenges if someone is more advanced, even in a group. I've also seen someone refer to the school horses as "plod along," and while that may be the case on the surface with some of them, advanced riders are able to pick up on the horses' nuances and have a constructive ride. I also appreciate that they do not try to upsell you constantly, unlike many barns I have been a patron of in the past. They are also very cautious about COVID restrictions, particularly since there are a lot of kids around during summer camp hours. If you're trying to get your kid fast-tracked into the pony ring at AA shows, this probably isn't the place for you. But if you or your kiddo want to learn how to ride, this is a great place with ample equipment, safe and sound animals, and excellent instruction.
