Offering first class instruction and training in Hunter/Jumper, Dressage & Horsemanship to riders and horses of all ages and experience levels, PSH strives to provide a place for our clients to learn, love & laugh with our equine partners.

Our mission is to bring our love for horses into the hearts of new and developing riders. We strive to develop and guide a fresh and insatiable hunger for the equine arts in our riders, whether child or adult, and to encourage rider independence and balance.
Whether you are a beginner who wants to learn to ride, or an experienced rider who wants to improve your skills, there is a place for you at our Riding School! We teach English and Western to our students, who range in age from 4 to Mature. Group and private sessions are available.
Students are split into small riding groups based on their ability and previous riding experience. Our goal is to build each rider’s skills and confidence enabling them to ride safely and correctly. Theory is an essential plank of our curriculum. The ‘whys’ of riding, training, and horse behavior, are equally important to the ‘hows’. Small group environment allows our instructors to offer individualized attention and develop riders at their own pace.
All students are taught a solid foundation in the basics of riding. Hunter, Jumper, Dressage, and Pleasure riders all learn to employ the balanced seat appropriate for their preferred riding style. Horsemanship is an essential aspect of every lesson. Each student is required to practice the basic responsibilities of the equine art, such as catching, grooming, and tacking their horse. As Ms. Kathy often says, “They don’t come with the saddles on!”... See More
