Stride by Stride Horsemanship Horseback riding in Penfield, NY

Laura has a wonderful ability to connect with both rider and horse. She has so many creative ways to help them grow as a team. She knows just when to ask a little more, when to keep working at the same task, and when to go back to working on previous skills.

We have really enjoyed riding lessons here. Laura is a patient, encouraging instructor, and her personality and smile make her a joy to be around! My daughter loves the fact that Laura teaches her not only how to ride but also about the horses themselves and how to understand and interact with them.

Laura has a deep knowledge of how horses think and learn, and teaches how to be a partner through a combination of groundwork and work in the saddle. I had never been taught groundwork, and it was amazing to learn how to sidepass and lunge. Her horses are soft, responsive, and a joy to ride.

Stride by Stride Horsemanship focuses on the process of becoming an attuned and responsive horse partner. Relationship is the core principle on which true horsemen and women thrive in an environment of support and fun!
