Lessons
Since we do not have indoor facilities, our lessons are only offered seasonally. We are no longer accepting students for 2007, but please contact us if you are interested in lessons when the weather becomes acceptable again next year.
Stillhaven Farms offers several different types of lessons and services for students. At this time all students ride in the English style although we hope to be offering western lessons as well in the near future.
Regular Lesson types and rates:
Private 45 minute lesson: $30
One hour group lesson (two or more people): $25 per person
For Children 3-6 years old:
We have a lesson program designed just for “the little ones”. These lessons are shorter and conducted mostly on lead line for safety. We concentrate on teaching balance, safety, and basic horse care while having a good time.
$20 per child for an individual half hour lesson
$15 per child for a group half hour lesson
Other Services for students:
Students that are 8 years old or older and have passed a basic abilities test on the horse they desire to lease may rent a school horse for $15/hour in order to practice at times other then their scheduled lesson. This must be arranged at least a week in advance to assure that the school horse is available at the desired time.
Some school horses are available for lease to our students. Leased horses may not leave the premises and must be ridden around any scheduled lessons they will be used for. If you wish to show your leased horse you must arrange this in advance and Stillhaven Farms staff must ok the transport the horse to/from the show at your expense. There are two types of lease:
1 - Partial Lease: $100/month. Includes 2 rides a week (1 weekend and 1 weekday ride) on the horse. A ride may be no longer then an hour.
2 - Full Lease: $200/month. Includes unlimited riding.
