Horseback Riding Lessons Built on Strong Fundamentals in Brownsburg-Chatham
Our lessons welcome beginners, nervous riders, and those who want to refine their basics through correct, hands-on horsemanship.
Building Partnerships: Rider Biomechanics & Horse Psychology
Our lessons combine rider biomechanics with horse psychology (ethology), teaching you to connect with the horse through understanding their behavior and natural movements. This creates a partnership, not just a riding technique.
We focus on becoming an active driver, not a passenger, whether you ride Western or English.
