True Natural Horsemanship is not just hopping in the saddle and learning how to hang one. Although, it is how you become an expert rider.  It's a gentle, beginner-friendly way to build a relationship with horses based on trust and communication. Instead of using force or fear, it teaches you how to understand a horse’s body language and instincts, and respond with calm clear cues. It includes learning the natural instincts and abilities of your equine friend.

​Beginners ages 8and up. We tailor each session to the rider’s comfort, skill  and confidence level.  If your nervous about beginning your lessons, your in the right place.  Our approach is gentle, patient, and grounded in natural horsemanship.  Move along at your own pace. 

​

We also have a special program for younger riders ages 5 to 7 who loves horses.  

Each lesson is 1 hour long and the cost is $40/lesson. 

Long pants or leggings, hard sole closed-toe shoes with a small heel, and weather-appropriate layers. Avoid tennis shoes, sandals, shorts, or loose jewelry. 

Safety First—For every rider’s safety, certified riding equestrian helmets are a must. We recommend purchasing your own so you get the best fit and feel.

You are free to buy your helmet or riding boots anywhere you like. Here's the link to our favorites on Amazon. If you have any specific questions, let us know.  We will be happy to answer them.

For riders under 16, we kindly ask that a parent or guardian stay on-site for the full duration of the lesson. While we take great care to create a safe and fun environment, horses are powerful animals—and even with the best precautions, accidents can happen.
Having a trusted adult nearby not only ensures safety, but also gives you a chance to cheer your rider on and witness their progress firsthand. It’s a meaningful part of the experience, and we’re grateful for your partnership.

Yes! While we don’t offer refunds, you’re welcome to reschedule any lesson.

We reserve the right to reschedule lessons due to bad weather (rain, storms, extreme heat).

All riding lessons take place at Bull Mt. Farm, located at:
