The lesson program at Pleasants Valley Riding Arena offers a very comprehensive education in the western discipline, both in and out of the saddle. All riders learn the importance of proper horsemanship in addition to strong riding basics before advancing to higher levels. Our instruction functions on a thorough curriculum, high standards for our riders, and the utmost respect for our horses. We are very fortunate to have a team of school horses whose former competitive careers, sweet personalities, and extensive training make them incredible schoolmasters. With members of all ages and levels and a fun, supportive community, the lesson program offers a welcoming, positive learning environment. Members often spend time at the stable outside of riding their lessons - be it watching lessons or cheering each other on. We offer training in sorting, roping, barrel racing, and horsemanship across three wonderful trainers.
