These classes are focused on helping the horse and rider of any level to develop balance and improve the foundation of their ride over flat poles to rating bigger fences. We set a different grid or course each month to give the rider a chance to expose themselves to different styles of fences, distances, and obstacles. We like to work through the “How..” and “why…” of different schooling techniques, discuss training equipment, and how to school your horse to build more confidence. Learning to ride Flat to Fences is all about your foundation training and learning to communicate what you need from your horse to be successful. We look forward to helping you in your training goals!
We have a lot of fun in these classes as you do have a chance to enjoy the camaraderie of your small groups. We only take 4 riders per class and so we can offer a lot of one on one support. Our grid classes are fun for everyone, from starting a horse over an obstacle for the first time, navigating the rein work involved in jumping and flat, western riders learning to ride the course flat as a training obstacle,or to riders looking to expose their horse to more difficult maneuvers associated with the hunter, jumper and cross country disciplines.
The classes are two hours in length and have a max of 4 riders for $35 which includes your arena, course, and instructor’s fee. We book these spots based on their experience and training levels so all participants can improve together and cheer each other on!
If you have a private group that you would like to put together please feel free to e-mail me and we can set up a time and designed course to suit your group.
