Course and Ride Combo : Horsemanship 101
If you’ve ever thought about owning your own horse or are interested in learning more than the lessons your horse will give you on the ride, the course and ride combo may be for you!
We will start the day with a three-hour crash course on the basics of horsemanship. You will learn important parts of the horse’s body, parts of the saddle, how to dress your horse to ride, basic horse grooming and healthcare, and some basic dos and don’ts.
Then we will put you in the saddle and show you some basic riding techniques in the round pen. You will learn how to properly mount and dismount the horse, and some basics in horse handling such as how to hold and lead a horse. You will learn some basic riding techniques such as making your horse start, stop and maintaining control at a walk, trot and canter. You will be very closely supervised the entire time you are in the round pen. After you have some basic riding skills and have some confidence, we will turn you loose in the arena for as long as it takes you to find your comfort zone.
We then will embark upon a three-hour trail ride where you can put your new skills to practice.
Rate:
$160 per person for groups of two or more
$145 with your horses
$260 for an individual (private class and ride)
Multiple-day Getaway
If you’re seeking more fun that one day will hold, e-mail us about our multiple-day getaway options. We can customize the perfect vacation for couples and small groups, based on your desires, destination choice and level of riding experience. It will be up to you to arrange lodging at a nearby motel, or bring your own camper if you wish.

Multiple-Day Campouts
Get a real taste of the great outdoors by camping out with your horse in Missouri’s parks. Most parks are located away from city lights where star viewing is endless. You won’t want to miss it!
We will set up a base camp and provide tents, air mattresses, sleeping bags, fans when needed and all meals. Each day we will ride a different trail. You will be taught basic horse care techniques and may be asked to assist as needed. You may choose to learn to saddle your own horse if you wish.
Meals will be prepared at the campsite with a Dutch oven and served around a campfire. Menu items will include bacon, pancakes, eggs, biscuits and gravy, beef stew, and chicken and rice.
This is a true western experience you will remember for years to come.
