LESSONS
PONY PALS LESSONS
For ages 5 - 7
We teach our youngest students English-style riding with a focus on safety and fun. As the parent, you’ll participate too! We’ll ask you to walk beside your child’s horse or pony to offer support and encouragement as they confidence and build new riding skills.
CHILDREN’S LESSONS
For ages 8 - 16
We divide classes based on riding ability. The core skills of children’s lessons are English-style riding focused on balance, control, and confidence at the walk, trot, and canter, plus learning the basics of jumping, dressage, and general equitation and horsemanship.
ADULT LESSONS
For ages 17 and up
Our instructors teach adult riders English-style riding by combining safety with a sense of humor. We offer adult lessons for beginners, those returning to riding after a period of time, and current riders who want to improve their skills.
We offer rolling admission so you can join a class anytime!
Horseback riding is a great way to relieve stress, get exercise, and have fun with friendly, like-minded people. If you’re looking to try something new, hone your skills, or rediscover a beloved hobby, Woodland is the right place for you!
