Dressage Lessons
Dressage lessons are available with Sarah for all riders from beginner to FEI levels. Sarah focuses on correct rider position to develop a soft elastic connection for proper development of the dressage horse. Many of Sarahs students come from a western or trail riding backround. Sarah helps these students develop a dressage seat and train their horses to be competition ready. Sarah can also help the more advanced student continue to train their dressage horse to a higher level.
Beginner Lessons
Beginner lesssons are offered for students ages 7 and up. School horses are available or haul ins are welcome. Sarah has several safe reliable school horses of different levels for you or your child to learn on. Riders will learn basic horsmanship and progress to basic jumping and dressage. In addition to riding skillsl essons include learning how to safely catch and groom your horse, tacking up, leading, mounting, and untacking your horse. Lessons for younger children will focus on safety, comfort around horses and of course having fun! As the child (or adult) progresses they will start focusing more on riding skills and improving balance and communication with the horse.


This is an amazing opportunity for your kids to learn to ride!.. Sarah is a great and patient teacher and my daughter absolutely loved her and learned so much in her lessons!
