We firmly believe that it is important that our riders learn in a supportive and positive atmosphere, and we strive to continuously provide constructive suggestions on how to correct the negative. In addition to being an exciting and challenging sport, the process of engaging in equine sports offers a relaxing, social environment for both adults and children — a perfect escape from everyday tension and stress. The process of developing awareness and control of the body and its relationship to the horse makes the learning process itself an inherently rewarding experience.
Whether you just love being around horses, or have competition goals, or are somewhere in between, we have a lesson to fit your needs and your level. With decades of experience, we can guide you on your way to becoming the best horse person you can be. Valley Ridge Farm puts a strong emphasis on safety and knowledge, so you can rest assured that you (or your loved one) are in the best hands possible!

Both equestrian teams are under the leadership and direction of Coach Michele Koury and are hosted at Valley Ridge Farm, Inc.
