Lesson Program
*SPRING 2025 IS CURRENTLY ON WAITLIST*
At Seahorse Stables Equestrian, our mission is to inspire a love for horses and the natural world through a beginner-friendly lesson program that emphasizes a whole-horse approach to horsemanship. By combining progressive, well-rounded equine education with opportunities for personal growth, we aim to build confident, empathetic individuals who understand the value of stewardship and connection.
​
Through hands-on learning in horse care, groundwork, and riding, our program fosters trust, leadership, and self-awareness. We strive to elevate the standard of equine instruction by prioritizing the well-being of both horse and rider, creating a foundation for lifelong skills and a deep appreciation for the world of horses.
​
In 2023, Seahorse Stables adopted the HorseSense Learning Levels curriculum to provide consistent, quality education to individuals in our lesson program. This tiered approach includes both mounted and unmounted equine education and allows the opportunity to provide both barn lessons and riding lessons. A "from-the-ground-up" approach is the foundation for our lesson program and is based on respect for both the horse and rider. We believe aspiring riders should receive solid, on the ground training and develop relationships with the horses in our care, prior to mounting and riding. Safety is our top priority.
