Lessons
Lessons
are for one hour. Lesson plans vary depending on
the horse and rider team and their goals.
All riders will learn the basics of good horsemanship, including
grooming and tacking-up with safety emphasized. All lessons will include
proper warm-up, cool-down and depending on the individual's ability:
pattern work, arena work, trail work and lunging. Handouts,
booklets, other suggested reading material will be given to you, plus
video tapes of certain sessions. The rider will receive a progress
report, verbal or written, on their riding progression. If riding your
own horse an evaluation of your horse's learning ability in conjunction
with the rider’s goals. Riders who are riding my horses will receive a
progress report, written and/or verbal, on their horsemanship skills.
Semi-private
lessons are for two-five riders. Clinic and group rates depend on the
subject matter and length of the lesson. Example programs: General
horsemanship for Scout’s, Barrel racing for beginners,
safety on the trail, etc. Please

My
specialty is training the “back-yard” horse and rider into
champions, but all aspects of horsemanship and sportsmanship are covered
in the lessons. I'm
available by phone or e-mail for additional horse related questions.
Coaching at North County, and California Gymkhana Association
(CGA) shows are at no additional charge for my continuous students if
I’m already scheduled to attend the show. If I’m not all ready
bringing my horses to a show then a lesson fee plus mileage will be
charged. Commitment from horse and rider is important in the
training/coaching process. Lessons
need to be scheduled in advance and paid for to secure a guaranteed
day and time. Individual lessons must be paid at the time of service
rendered. My lesson
schedule is extremely tight. Therefore except
in a medical emergency you will be charged for any
cancellation of a lesson if you do not notify me within
48
hours prior to your scheduled lesson.
Parents/grandparents/spouses
are always welcome to watch the lesson in progress.
Small children must be supervised at all times. All
riders, family, friends who are on my ranch or around my horses must
sign a liability release.
