    👤 Private 30-minute lead-line sessions for children ages 5–9.

    Pony Walks is an introductory exposure experience, not a riding lesson program, designed to gently introduce kids to horses and the outdoors in a calm, supportive setting.

    Students will learn basic grooming skills and enjoy being led on horseback along the trails. Each session includes time to connect with nature, ask questions, and share “cowpoke chats” with their lead-line instructor, Peaches, while getting to know their trusted steed.

    This is a non-progressive program, meaning each visit follows a familiar, consistent routine focused on comfort, confidence, and enjoyment rather than skill advancement. Sessions may be booked as often as desired, with no limit on participation

    Meet Peaches and her two off-the-track Thoroughbreds in this hands-on, ground-based horsemanship program. Ground & Groom is a four-week series, meeting weekly, with each session building on the skills learned the week before.

    Students will learn how to safely halter a horse from the field, lead correctly, tie securely, and groom with purpose and confidence. We’’ll wrap up in the fourth week with students putting all skills together in a complete ground-handling routine.

    This program is ideal for kids or adults who want a structured introduction to the world of horses without riding, offering a practical, confidence-building foundation in horsemanship.
