The lesson program at Hope Ranch focuses on English riding, which includes building a strong foundation in dressage, equitation and hunter/jumpers. All horses are chosen to match the size and skill level of each rider. In addition to riding instruction, students are taught a variety of horse-related information, such as grooming, handling, tack care, showmanship, etiquette, feeds and nutrition, breeding and health. Riding in the company of others promotes camaraderie and encourages our students to advance faster which is why we train in group lessons at a beginning level. For those who wish to move onto the next level of competition Hope Ranch holds horse shows, clinics and trail rides on a monthly basis for our students. We also travel to several local shows for those whose skill level qualifies them. PAGE 1 2 |
