Our riding academy was established exactly ONE year ago as an opportunity for both children and adults to take riding lessons in a safe, professional, and fun atmosphere. We have qualified instructors for all levels of riding. Lessons in the academy begin at the age of 7 and up, ages 3-7 should check out the pony garten. Our lesson ponies and horses are safe, honest, trustworthy, and fun for our riders.
When you choose Kirsch Equestrian Center, we want to help you develop the skills necessary to become a well-rounded horse person. We teach you how to tack up a horse, the care of tack, how to groom a horse, how to ride, and eventually participate in a horse show if that is your goal. There are additional opportunities to learn about horse care, equestrian property management, nutrition, and performance. We care about you, your safety, and your well-being. Most of all we like to have fun in a safe, friendly, and encouraging environment!
