Golden Acres Training and Instruction

Lessons available for all levels of riders.  Beginner lessons will stress the importance of care for the horse.  All lessons run from 45 minutes to one hour in length.  For beginners this hour includes supervised grooming and preparation (tacking up) for the ride.  All riders will establish a strong foundation in equitation and proper flatwork principles.  Those whom wish to jump may.

All horses in training will be introduced to dressage principles through First Level.  From there they either will move to jumping and/or more advanced dressage.  Jumping will be introduced slowly to help establish confidence and control in the horse.  Jumping may include gymnastic jumping, courses, collection exercises, etc.  Training rides average 45 minutes in length, but may go as long as an hour.  Horses in training may receive special discounts and showing opportunities.

Place your horse in training and be able to have the horse shown by the trainer.  Coaching at shows and riding at shows are charged by the hour (include time to travel) this may be split between riders and horse owners.  Transportation for horse to and from show may be arranged.
