 Riding Lessons at ADVANTAGE RANCH offer a one-on-one horse-rider experience that creates a unique bond perfect for self-reflection and personal growth. Working with horses inspires participants to improve their relationships, communication skills, and situational awareness, while  experiencing trust, harmony, and relief from every day stress. Our lesson program focuses on the use of balance seat equitation, the Dressage training scale, and the incorporation of multiple competitive disciplines in pursuit of well-rounded and confident riders. Students of all ages and experience levels will gain from our multi-dimensional approach to the riding and training of our equine partners.We believe private lessons provide the best and safest introduction or re-introduction to riding. As soon as instructors are comfortable with each student’s progress within our lesson program, we move to semi-private and small group sections that include longer instruction times and the opportunity to learn from fellow students. Lessons can be scheduled around your needs and availability - please call us today to set up a consultation to meet with instructors and arrange your first lesson!
