Riding Lessons provided by Equestrians Excellence, LLC at Rocking R Ranch.

Equestrians Excellence's dedication to maintaining "quality over quantity" with our student riders in our lesson program sets us apart from practically all others in the business. We take pride in offering high-quality riding lessons that are tailored to each individual's goals and abilities.

Whether you are just starting or have years of experience, our programs are designed to cater to all levels, from beginners to advanced riders. Our trainers are here to support you in developing your confidence and skills with horses. We understand the importance of individual learning styles and strive to accommodate every rider's goals. We take pride in creating a safe, relaxed, and enjoyable environment for everyone. We want all our riders to feel like they are part of our ranch family, where they can learn and grow at their own pace.

Rest assured that our instructors are experienced and committed to providing top-quality instruction. We believe in the power of a positive and encouraging learning environment that allows riders to reach their full potential. We look forward to welcoming you to our ranch and helping you embark on a rewarding equestrian journey.

By emphasizing connection and cooperation over control and dominance, we create an environment where riders can develop their skills while fostering a meaningful relationship with their equine partners. Our instructors are experienced and passionate about teaching the technical aspects of riding and the art of communication and trust-building with horses.

We believe that true horsemanship goes beyond simply riding a horse. It involves understanding their nature, needs, communication, and working harmoniously to achieve mutual goals. We prioritize the well-being and happiness of our horses, ensuring they are treated with respect and kindness.

If you are looking for a riding lesson program that values quality over quantity, prioritizes connection and cooperation with horses, and focuses on individual relationships, then we invite you to join our programs and ranch family. Discover the joy of riding while building a lifelong bond with these majestic animals.

Equine Empowerment Foundation is committed to providing horsemanship opportunities to all individuals who qualify, regardless of their financial circumstances.

Full and Partial scholarships may be available in late 2024/early 2025!
