lessons

My philosophy of riding is grounded in the German classical approach. I emphasize the rider’s seat and how it influences the horse’s movement, as well as the development of a harmonious understanding between horse and rider.

All lessons and training are structured around the training scale to ensure the correct progressive development of horse and rider according to classical principles.

One hour private lesson : $50

1/2 hour private lesson : $25

Semi-private lesson : $35/rider

Lessons are available at Patusan Farm in Clarksburg, PA or Hi Acres Stables in New Alexandria, PA. You may haul in for lessons. If you do not own a horse, you may schedule a lesson on an appropriate school horse. Lessons at Hi Acres Stables incur an additional $10 facility fee.

Lessons are also available at your facility for a minimum of four riders.
