Danielle is also very capable and enjoys the retraining an off the track thoroughbred (OTTB) or a “problem” horse.  More experienced horses are welcome as well for tune up rides or we can help with a particular issue or assist you in moving up a level.

Before any horse comes in for training we will meet with the owner and horse to make sure we set expectations and appropriate goals for the time frame the horse is with us. Other packages can be customized to meet the needs of almost any situation. For more information on our training program, please contact Danielle directly.

Lessons

Lessons

Danielle works with riders of all ages and levels to safely develop a balanced and independent seat while maintaining a clear communication and harmony with the horse.

Emphasizing the fundamentals of good horsemanship, she helps students create a working relationship with the horse built on trust, understanding, and compassion.

“Developing positive communication and respect between horse and rider creates an atmosphere of success for both of you”

Lessons 

Beginner – You will learn and experience everything about horses!  As a beginner, you will first learn barn orientation.  Knowing how a barn runs is beneficial to a rider, as you will gain competency and confidence in horsemanship, allowing you to be a more independent horse person.  Each rider will learn general safety, including safe groundwork and horse handling.  Riders will learn to groom and tack their mount, becoming more familiar with the horse and its tack.  As a rider, you will learn basic riding position (seat, hands and legs, and what they do!).  Riders will learn the horse’s gaits and gain confidence to safely steer their horse through the gaits independently.  For advanced beginners, trail rides and jumping will be introduced to those who wish to learn.

Time Frame: Lessons are 60 minutes of scheduled instruction.

$120 Private lesson with Danielle

$100 group lesson with Danielle

$60 private lesson with other instructor

$50 group lesson with other instructor

Intermediate – Riders will be able to care independently for their horse and to understand the reasons for what they are doing.  There is a development to a secure and independent seat.  Jumping courses, more intricate dressage and cross country jumping are introduced at this level. 

Advanced – Rider is competent and experienced riding different mounts with confidence and control.  At this level, rider is able to work with trainer in progressing their horse’s training and is able to explain the reasoning for their methods.  Rider is able to “feel” the horse and adjust properly. 

Time Frame: Lessons are 30 minutes of scheduled instruction. Those with experience tacking up and preparing their horse for the lesson will be expected to be ready and warmed up for the lesson start time and should adjust accordingly.
