About the video:
The video shows a child in her second lesson and learning to post on a horse.  Posting is the position a rider takes when a horse is trotting...the rider moves up and down in the saddle in relation to the horse's steps.
_______________________________________
As a beginner, it may take time to develop coordination to properly post on a horse and as you see in the video, the rider is first learning this technique and beginning to strengthen the leg muscles needed to post.  
______________________________________
Amber takes great pride in teaching beginners horse riding in a safe manner and will always use a lead line attached to the horse until the rider is skilled enough to control the horse on their own.   
_____________________________________
We have many beautiful and experienced lesson horses ready to help you and your family learn horseback riding in a fun and  safe way!  Enjoy the peaceful riding environment of our stable, too!

~ Types of Lessons & Instruction ~

Riding lessons / 6 yrs and up:

The structure for riding lessons are:

1/2 hour Private, Semi-private*, and Group*
1 hour Private, Semi-private*, and Group*
1/2 hour Showmanship

* Note: Semi-private has 2 riders and Group has 3+ riders.

Ground lessons / 4-5 yrs old:   Note: Most children 5 yrs and under do not have enough motor skill development to safely control a horse on their own.

Ground lessons would include learning:

  • Basic horse tack
  • Basic horse grooming
  • Basic horse behavior
  • Basic horse anatomy
  • Basic horse leading 

Your child will receive supervised beginner instruction in a pleasant atmosphere on simple horse knowledge and tasks with horses. Perfect for those parents who want their children to have experiences with horses, but in a way that allows the child to develop at their own pace within a safer environment.

If you do not own a horse, contact us about take riding lessons. 
We encourage all skill levels and riding disciplines to enjoy our facility.
_________________________________________

If you have a horse at home and are looking to sharpen your riding skills, you may trailer in your own horse and take an individual riding lesson with the instructor (day fees apply). 


We welcome other instructors to inquire about opportunities 
at our stable!

Disclaimer:
Thornberry is all about fun with horses, however, we want to warn you of the possibility of dangers when riding a horse, particularly young children who have not developed strong motor skills.  All horses, whether trained or not, are unpredictable and can be dangerous.  They are not machines and do not always behave how we would like them to.  We feel it is a stable's responsibility to inform you of the possibility of risk during activities with horses.  Our goal is to bring people and horses together as safely as possible, therefore we endorse that learning and gaining knowledge about every aspect of horses should be a major portion of the horse experience.
