Intermediate To Beginner Riding
Intermediate Horse Training is tailored for riders who have confidently mastered all the skills in the Beginner Level. Intermediate students are adept at handling horses independently and possess a solid foundation in riding. They are ready to advance their skills further, possibly exploring techniques at the trot or beginning to learn horse management at the lope.
Intermediate
Lessons are held in small groups tailored to the student’s age and skill level. This allows us to work individually with students to increase their knowledge, skills, and confidence so that they become safe, competent, well-rounded riders and horse handlers.
We encourage riders to bring their own horse to maximize the benefits of the experience. Practicing with your own horse in a new environment can help strengthen your bond and improve your skills together
