How It Works
At Rocking Horse Ranch, we’ve designed a step-by-step approach to help riders build confidence, master new skills, and enjoy their time in the saddle. Whether you’re brand new to horseback riding or looking to refine your technique, our process ensures you get the personalized attention and guidance you need.
1. Start with an Initial Assessment – $40
- Every rider begins with an Initial Assessment to evaluate your current skill level. This session helps our instructors understand your strengths, areas for improvement, and riding goals. It’s also a great way for you to get comfortable with our horses and instructors.
2. Build Your Skills with Private Lessons – $65 per Lesson
- After your assessment, you’ll begin a series of Private Lessons tailored to your specific needs. These one-on-one sessions focus on developing fundamental riding skills, improving technique, and building confidence in the saddle. Our instructors will work closely with you to ensure you’re progressing at a pace that feels right for you.
3. Transition to Group Lessons – $40 per Lesson
- Once you’ve reached a level where you’re comfortable handling and saddling your horse independently, you’ll be introduced into Group Lessons with riders of similar skill levels. Group lessons are a fun way to continue improving your skills while riding alongside others, fostering camaraderie and shared learning experiences.
4. Keep Advancing with Specialized Lessons
- As your skills grow, you can explore specialized lessons in areas like Jumping, Barrel Racing, Western Pleasure, and more. Whether you’re riding for fun or looking to compete, we’re here to support your goals every step of the way.
