Riding Lessons
We offer one hour private and group lessons to students of all ages. Students can start at any time and progress at their own pace. We have a variety of lesson horses available for all ages, riding abilities and discipline. Beginners are taught basic horsemanship and riding skills with a focus on building a strong relationship with their horse. The relationship between horse and horseman is the basis of all of our riding and training programs at Red Oak Farms.
Lessons are for all ages and skill levels. If you have never been on a horse before or you are a seasoned competitor we can give you new tools to make the most from your riding experience. Family members can have lessons together as skill levels allow. Amy has taught siblings, husband/wife, grandmother/granddaughter, mom/son, and whole families. Since all riders work at their own pace, everyone can be challenged and cheer each other on with no competition.
Individual lessons are $40 per one hour session. We offer a discounted rate to riders who purchase our four lesson package for $140. Our lesson rates are priced to allow anyone to enjoy horses.
Students can choose to participate in horse shows, trail rides, parades and other events.
