Horseback Riding in Wheat Ridge, Colorado (Jefferson County)

Currently I am working with students ages 5+ in all disciplines from first-time riders to advanced, experienced riders with just a few spots left. Whether for fun or for fine-tuning for shows, lessons are available on one of our many safe lesson horses or on your own horse. Training or starting of your horse is also available.
I believe everyone and every horse is an individual with individual needs and wants. I will work with you to set goals and a training plan, and I will take you to where you want to be as a rider and as a good horseman/horsewoman. Aside from learning how to be a safe, confident, capable, and happy rider with a happy horse, you can also learn all aspects of horse care and safe horse handling.
If you are an advanced rider, I will help you fine tune your skills and take you to the next level of balanced connected riding, helping you to get everything your horse can give you without stifling their ability or movement.
If you are a beginner, whether child or adult, I will give you the basic building blocks to give you a strong foundation for whatever goals you have with horses whether just for fun or for competing.
I grew up in South Florida and was involved in 4H and pony club as in my childhood. I showed at local and A-rated hunter/jumper shows. I trained under such trainers as Pablo Gamboa (hunter/jumper), Linda Smith (hunter/jumper), Peter Trappman (hunter/jumper and dressage), and I was a working student for Jeanette Sassoon (dressage). I moved to Fort Collins in 2001 and continued my education with top Morgan Horse trainers in all disciplines (saddle seat, driving, hunter eq and pleasure, western eq and pleasure, etc.). I began training professionally and by 2003 my clients and horses were showing successfully on the Morgan Circuit on a local and National level.
Private lessons, semi-private lessons, and small group lessons available at reasonable rates. Special package pricing is also available. Discounted prices for multiple family members taking lessons and true beginner children. Summer camp is also available. Let’s make learning fun in a safe and professional environment with a professional, experienced, and insured trainer.

I am a hunter/jumper trainer with over 20 years experience teaching riders from beginner up to the Grand Prix level. Quality school horses and tack are available. I am a licensed USEF judge, and I show and train at all levels of competition. My priority in training is to teach the horses and riders to be relaxed, confident, and happy. I believe in using classical training techniques to effectively communicate, listening to the horses and understanding what they are thinking and how this effects their ability to do their job. It all comes down to teaching basics better to create a solid base to build on. I am straight forward and honest about what I see, passionate about the horses, and I love my job.

The highly qualified, experienced staff of Hidden Creek Equestrian Center are dedicated to providing excellent equine care and management, individual training programmes, and professional, certified instruction for students of all ages and abilities. Our lesson programme is suitable for students of all ages and abilities, and we have well-trained school horses available for students. We have over 25 years experience teaching students to ride and we understand the complex, individual needs and goals of each student. There is not a 'one size fits all' system when teaching riding, each student has their own physical and psychological expectations and, sometimes, limitations, and we have the necessary experience to recognise this and work with each student as an individual, at their own pace. We specialise in riders who struggle with confidence issues, and will take as much time as it takes to build confidence and necessary skills so that horse and rider can be a partnership. Safety while working with and riding horses is extremely important to us, and correct horse handling techniques, including leading, grooming, tacking up, are all part of the lesson programme....
