As the featured program and focal point of all programs at RNR Stables, our Lesson Program has been created to enable horse riders of all ages to develop and nurture their passion to become skilled and knowledgeable equine enthusiasts in a safe and friendly environment with many other Horse lovers. The foundation of our lesson program is to teach the importance of learning the right way to ride and care for horses, with basic activities to build confidence and allow the horse enthusiast the ability to demonstrate learned skills. We build up from proven basic exercises to achieve higher and higher skill levels as the rider’s confidence and abilities grow.
Our Skills Level program allows riders a measurable platform to develop their individual equine skills using a carefully monitored progress sheet to measure the student’s ability to demonstrate learned skills acquired in our RNR Stables development plan. Our Skills Level programs are Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Each Skills level is designed to build on the student’s ability based on their level when beginning the program.
Governed by a three or six-month contractual agreement each Lesson Program is outlined with specific activities and tasks to monitor and measure students Skill level to accomplish either the Beginner, Intermediate, or Advance Skill level. Within each Skill Level program, students will be exposed to many activities within the following areas to enhance their equine skills:
