Lessons and Instruction

We offer a junior riding academy, specially tailored to teaching and training riders who wish to further their riding skills and compete either locally, regionally or nationally. If you or your child is interested in our program, please contact us! We offer lease packages, horse showing and our full-time academy. Please visit our website at www.iridingacademy.com.

Please sign up as soon as possible, spaces are limited!!

When available, flatwork lessons are offered with our Assistant Trainers and consist of 30 minutes of instruction in the ring. Equitation lessons for more advanced riders are available with our Head Trainer on Academy horses at an additional fee. Lessons are usually available Monday through Saturday in the morning.

For the summer months and holidays, if your child has already taken lessons and is able to participate in group lessons, we are offering 45 minute group lessons in the following categories for certain weeks only (please call for availability):

WT  -   Walk, trot
BC  -   Beginning canter
WTC  -   Walk, trot, canter - poles
XR  -   Cross-rails
EQ  -   Equitation - Maclay format for intermediate to advanced riders

Intermediate to advanced riders interested in jumping are encouraged to visit the International Riding Academy website for more information or join the International Riding Academy Summer Program.

All riders in the International Riding Academy program are carefully assessed and a riding program is designed for each rider's individual needs to advance him or her to the next level. Our riders show at the local, regional and/or national levels, and all riders are encouraged to participate in one of our programs.

Our talented and highly experienced staff will lead you through the stages to achieve your equestrian goals.
