One of the greatest lessons we hope to teach our students—especially our younger equestrians—is that horses are so much more than a riding lesson, a workout, a lesson horse, or a passing interest.

They are partners.
A true partnership is built on patience, trust, kindness, and respect. It goes both ways, and when you give your horse those things, they'll give them back tenfold.

The bond between a horse and rider is something truly special, and watching those relationships grow is one of our favorite parts of teaching.

Thursday was our famous Obstacle Course Day! 🐴💙

This is always a camper favorite! The obstacle course challenges each rider to put all of the skills they've worked on throughout the week into action while building confidence every step of the way.

This year's course included: • Trot poles • Halt & salute • Picking up and placing cones • Walk, trot & canter barrel pattern • Weaving through oversized poles • The infamous Wall of Doom • Finishing with a small jump!

I am so proud of every single camper for stepping outside their comfort zone, encouraging one another, and giving it their all. Watching their confidence grow has been the best part of the week!

Day 3 was starting to get a little toasty, but it didn't stop this group from giving their best!
Continued focusing on trotting, heel position, two point, rein position, and of course cantering for those that were ready!
We ended the day playing a few water games to help cool off.
More pics to come 🥰

Day 2 ♡
Our beginners doubles up ba****ck and went out on a wonderful trail ride. It was such a beautiful day!
Our more advanced riders worked on posting exercises, different positions, when & how to use each rein, leg positions, and so much more!

Everyone needs a day of sparkle and fun!! 🥳🥳
