Our Program
Specializing in the Progession of Horse and Rider for the Show Ring
At our facility, all clients who lesson with us also board their horse or pony on-site, ensuring consistency in care, training, and progress. We offer two options for training:
-
Full Training Program: This program includes up to 16 training rides or lessons per month. Kris not only teaches from the ground but also rides each horse in the program regularly. This hands-on approach allows him to translate specific needs directly to the rider and ensure the horse’s development or maintenance at every stage of their training.
-
Individual Lessons: For clients who board with us but do not require full training, we offer individual lessons tailored to the rider and horse's needs.
Kris’s program emphasizes strong flatwork fundamentals, incorporating exercises that evolve and increase in rigor to strengthen both horse and rider together. Lessons are predominantly private or grouped based on skill level and the course work planned for the day. Our courses and exercises are consistently updated to keep both horse and rider challenged and progressing.
