of the horse. This program is Faith Based as well. It’s amazing how showing God’s love through working with horses heals confidence issues, repairs self-esteem and teaches positive communication.

These lessons are for children or adults to learn about horses, how to lead, groom, and ride. This is not riding lessons for any type of equine events. These lessons are providing knowledge and the experience
