Tomorrow's advanced equestrians are today's beginners. All great riders had to start somewhere, right?  

Although we specialize in helping 4H members and youth riders achieve their horsemanship goals, we have a large number of adult students who are either returning to riding after an extended absence or are beginning to ride.

We take pride  in building confidence and foundation in basic horsemanship in our beginner riders.

Rest assured that you and your children are receiving personalized, safe instruction from a professional, insured, CHA Certified Riding Instructor. Our instructor to student ratio is the best! There are at least two instructors in the arena during each group lesson. Our safety record speaks for itself. Safety is our number one priority, and you will never be over-mounted. Our horses are safe for all ages and riding levels.

Once comfortable with their skills, we give our students several opportunities throughout the year to go
compete at local shows. This gives our students a sense of pride, teaches them about good sportsmanship and allows them to network with other horse people in the community and have FUN!

It's not just about riding.......It's an educational experience.

Lessons here at Harvest Moon involve more than just getting on a horse and riding.

Students literally start from the ground and work their way up, with lessons in safe horsemanship being our top priority. Our program is goal -oriented.

All students will learn about:

• equine anatomy
• equine psychology
• equine first aid
• saddlery
• arena and barn safety
• equine care and nutrition
• horsemanship
