Riding Instruction

To Ride or Not to Ride? ...There is No Question!

"There are many skills gained by a rider during the course of learning horsemanship. While learning to control a twelve hundred pound animal and bring him to the level of a competitive partner, many life skills are also obtained. Horseback riding is wonderful exercise and a forum for a student to learn empathy, set and achieve goals, develop a good work ethic, poise, and above all else learn confidence"

At LA Quarter Horse Farm we have instructors/trainers that can meet the needs of every rider. Your instructor will create an individual program based on your objectives. LA Quarter Horse Farm school horses are available if you do not own your own horse. When you progress to the point of wanting to ride more often and on your own, horses are available for full or half lease. This is often a good first step before making the commitment involved in owning a horse. Then, when you decide that it is time to own your own horse, we can assist in the process.

To help our students gain all that they can from our comprehensive lessons program, we offer a bi-weekly saddle club meeting, a 4-H club and a Western and English show team.
