Riders ages 5 and up enjoy the personalized attention they receive from our instructors. Everyone begins in private lessons which are 30 minutes in length of actual riding time. When a rider is safely able, at the instructors’ discretion, they may move into semi-private or group sessions. Lessons proceed at each rider’s pace and level of learning, based upon the collective desire of instructor and student to achieve each individual’s goal. We have well-trained, kind, and safe lesson horses that can aid the most timid rider into becoming a confident equestrian, as well as more challenging horses for the accomplished rider. Your program may be purely recreational or structured towards competition. From local schooling shows to competing as a Vantage Point owner/exhibitor on the national level, our program can take you in any direction you choose to go.
Vantage Point has fabulous lesson horses. Each has been selected for their outstanding mental and physical qualities desired in the learning type mount. Many of our horses are adoptees from Saddlebred Rescue, a charitable organization that works to ensure the safety and well-being of retired, forgotten or unwanted American Saddlebred horses. We specialize in Saddle Seat riding but also offer instruction in Western and Hunter Pleasure. Click here to learn more about Saddle Seat riding and its history.
