Availability is limited and based on rider readiness and horse suitability. Price is per month.
Each month, we offer two Saturday drop-in horsemanship days. Available dates are emailed at the beginning of each month. Sessions are first-come, first-served and offered as solo or couple sessions. Priority booking is given to pre-pay clients.
Time:
1:00 PM – 2:00 PM; 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM; 3:00 PM- 4:00 PM
These sessions are ideal for individuals or families who need flexibility, or for riders who want additional saddle time beyond weekly lessons. Riders may attend on one or more Saturdays per month, as space allows.
