The Riding School at James River Equestrian Center

JREC is a wonderful place. My daughter and myself have been riding there for a year now. The instructors and staff are so knowledgeable and friendly. It’s been an absolute joy getting to know everyone and all of the horses/ponies. They truly love and care for the horses and riding students!
