Riding Lessons
Here at MEA we strive to ensure that everyone has fun, learns appropriate skills both on and off the ground, and that safety and horsemanship is at the forefront of lessons.
By teaching the correct skills and safety techniques we can help to improve the safety aspects that can be associated with having fun around our equine friends.
We also offer our clients the insight into basic horse psychology to learn how and why they think and behave so differently to us. We believe that this knowledge is what will help you keep moving forward with your riding and eventually your horse's training, without taking backward steps which can often occur through miscommunication in the partnership.
