From the very beginning, Jaimee taught me everything step by step, starting with how to properly approach and handle a horse, all the way through to confidently riding on my own.
I had a try out lesson today at Crossroads and I absolutely love it and I can't wait to go back again next week 🐴😊
I also appreciate that the lessons are not just about riding, my daughter learned to care for the horse and all that goes into riding, including before and after care.

Questions to ask a lesson barn
- Who would teach me? Ask how long the instructor has taught and which riders they usually work with.
- Private or group? Ask how many riders are in a lesson and what level they ride at.
- English or Western? Ask which style the barn teaches, and whether you can try both.
