Horsemanship

Happy New Year!

Our passion is quality horsemanship that is designed around the horse first. We actively practice the art of classical vaquero riding and would love to bring you on the journey with us if you so desire. We offer lessons and training onsight following this pursuit.

We’re excited to go into the new year with starting our school schedule! I’ll recap what it is and offer more detail before going into the month’s schedule.

Each Friday I’ll be dedicating the whole day to onsight lessons- group or private- at a discounted rate. I’ll be available on Fridays from 9am to 7pm. You can book yourself an hour (or more if needed) within that timeframe. It will be $40 for an hour/person on Fridays whether for private one on one lessons or for group- depending on what you’d like to sign up for. ((Normal rates are 50/hour) and I’ll still be available some other days in the week for onsight and offsight lessons with advanced booking))

We will have an objective each Friday of the week but will still prioritize working at an individual level. There is no pressure to the individual to focus on the objective- the objective is there to help offer guidance to horse/mule/donkey owners that maybe haven’t checked up on some basics or perhaps are wanting some guidance and direction in general. For example; even if the schedule focuses on something under saddle- the individual can still do a lesson on groundwork and will still receive the discount.

At the end of the month we will put everything into practice with an event or clinic- and when Tom Mowery is available we plan to host him here for some of these monthly events as well.

Event examples; obstacles, cattle work, donkey days, trails, etc

Our first month will be focusing on basics but as we progress we plan to have certain months be more advanced too.

We would love feedback from those who participate to help us mold this into a really great learning opportunity for people and horses. Our idea is for everybody to give input on what they’d like to be able to access weekly, monthly, and even virtually at some point! We are in the beginning stages of this and our priority is about helping the horse/mule/donkey and creating a place for the human to learn how to get along with their animal better.

Really looking forward to the New Year!
