Riding Lesson Program
and
Summer Camp
RIDING.....IT'S NOT JUST FOR KIDS! Although we
specialize in helping 4H kids and youth riders achieve their
horsemanship goals, we have a large number of adult students who are
either returning to riding after an extended absence or starting fresh!
Looking for a way to relax after a stressful week? Horses are a
wonderful way to get back in touch with your inner spirit!
It's also great exercise and a confidence-builder for riders of all ages,
and an awesome way for families to spend quality time together!
We give our students several opportunities throughout the year to go
compete at local shows. This gives our students a sense of pride,
teaches them about good sportsmanship and allows them to network
with other horse people in the community and have FUN!
Rest assured that you and your children are receiving personalized,
safe instruction from a professional, insured, CHA Certified Riding
Instructor. Our instructor to student ratio is the best! There are at least
two instructors in the arena during each group lesson. Our safety record
speaks for itself. Safety is our number one priority, and you will never be
over-mounted. Our horses are safe for all ages and riding levels.
It's not just about riding.......It's an educational
experience.
Lessons here at Harvest Moon involve more than just getting on a
horse and riding.
Students literally start from the ground and work their way up, with
lessons in safe horsemanship being our top priority. Our program
is goal -oriented.
All students will learn about:
-equine anatomy
- equine psychology
- equine first aid
- equipment maintenance
-arena and barn safety
-equine care and nutrition
-finding the right horse for your skill level
-horsemanship
What we're about
We utilize progressive learning techniques, positive reinforcement,
confidence-building exercises and even mounted games to make
riding lessons a fun, rewarding and safe experience!

rider who's interested in showing locally, or an older student who's
getting back into riding for the fun of it, we have several sweet,
husband and beginner-safe horses for you to ride! We ride in the
arena, in the fields, on the trails - WHEREVER!
