Your journey to connecting and growing with horses begins here.

Welcome to Horse Sense for Kids

We believe in the transformative power of horses. Our western horseback riding lessons, Ride N Play programs, fun days and special events provide a unique opportunity to develop both horsemanship and life skills.

Our horsemanship programs include all the traditional riding skills however we add in the most powerful component – CONNECTION AND RELATIONSHIP.  Learning to ride and handle horses from this perspective opens the door to developing a deeper understanding and growth as a horseman. It is through appreciation and empathy that the full gift of what horses can do for us is experienced.

Join us at Horse Sense for Kids and embark on an unforgettable journey filled with adventure, growth, and a deep appreciation for such incredible animals.

Our Impact

“My daughter loves barn days and is always excited to go. Paige will tell you it’s the best day of the week! She is a very quiet, shy girl who has been searching for a special place to belong. Since joining the Horse Sense Horsemanship Program, I have seen so much growth in her confidence and sense of identity.”
