    My daughter has been riding at Highland Riding Stable for a year now and I could not be happier! She started as a shy child who lacked confidence but has grown in confidence and has made many friends at the barn and loves spending her time there. My daughter trains with Lucy who is excellent! She constantly gives the children feedback throughout the lesson and will ask them for the riding goals for the year. At the end of the year Lucy revisits their goals so the kids can see if they met or exceeded their goals. Sarah who owns Highland is lovely and you will often spot her around the barn chatting with the kids and parents. You will also see Sarah at the schooling shows supporting the kids. Sarah test rides every horse herself so she gets the right fit (of horse) for the barn. There is a real feeling of community at the barn. They offer movie nights, holiday camps, etc... I cannot recommend Highland enough!

    I've been meaning to write this review for a long time but life has a way of getting away from you…read more I took two blocks of lessons with All Seasons Horse Riding and their team is phenomenal. I had and rode horses as a kid but it had been a good 20 years since my last ride and I'd lost all the skills and confidence I once had. All Seasons helped me build that confidence right back up. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, patient and approachable. Every lesson there seriously felt like therapy. Just being around the horses, the kind folks and learning without a ton of pressure was always so nice. They make it a point to end each session on a high note - it's good for the horses and for you as a rider. During extra hot or rainy days, sometimes the riding lessons would be canceled but more often than not, the lesson would just be horsemanship and/or groundwork. I know some people only want the riding parts of the lessons but having instructors that can teach you the horsemanship and groundwork techniques is invaluable. You build so much more skill and appreciation for the horses that way. It allows you to actually foster relationships with the horses too. I enjoyed that aspect so much that sometimes I'd request those lessons even if the weather was good to ride. I had to take a break due to my own budget constraints but i will be back! The lessons are absolutely fairly priced and worth every dollar.

    They kept trying to sell us more lessons instead of scheduling the lessons we had already paid for.read more

    My 2 daughters have been with Horizons East for over 3 years. They had gone from riding academy to…read morecompetitive training riders, and each of them has grown beautifully as a rider as well as a person. Here is why.. First, the coaches are skillful and caring. Not only their priority is always safety, but also encouraging riders to properly care for the horses. They pay attention to each individual rider's skill and help them progress. This sport is physically and mentally challenging. My girls have had their struggles, but the coaches have been patient, guiding them through, and gone above and beyond to help them succeed. My girls have grown their confidence and learned their ways to cope and push through their challenges. I truly appreciate and respect them. Thanks to Sam, Barbara, Dacota, Nikki, Shannon, Tiffany, Heather, Rena, and Terri! Second, HZE has different levels of horses that fit the riders' skill, from a beginner to advanced rider who want to lease or own a horse. The horses are in good care and Sam is very knowledgeable and attentive when it comes to horses' well being. They also have IEA team, and are very experience at horse shows. Last, but not least, HZE has a very friendly and relaxed environment. My girls enjoy spending time with their friends at the barn and help out with what they can. Advanced riders are always willing to help, so are their parents. They have flexible schedule, no weekly fixed schedule required, and very accommodating to reasonable changes.

    I had a lesson with Coach Heather and learned the basics of caring for a horse as well as riding…read more The riding school horses are very gentle and well-behaved. I rode with Tajma, who was taller than my head when we stood next to each other. Coach Heather did an amazing job reassuring me when mounting and dismounting. The introductory lesson included turning, stopping, going, posturing, and various balancing exercises. By the end of the hour, I was already comfortable on horseback. It would be ideal to extend the actual horseback training to an hour, with prep and cleanup being additional time. However, I understand that this could be strenuous for the animals.

It was essential that I had someone who could work around my busy schedule. I could not be more grateful to Kelly (the owner) for helping me find the perfect partner to ride. Kelly, has been more than accommodating with lesson times and my week to week schedule. The half lease has been perfect, and I enjoy the freedom she allows by trusting you with her beautiful horses. From going on trails to hacking to full on training sessions. It is the one highlight of my week. As a new rider to this sport, I was apprehensive to ever compete in a show. She has taken me to the next level by training me to go to my very first horse show this year! Kelly, has the experience, expertise and excitement for all things equestrian. I look forward to continuing my journey here and jumping to the next level with KMT.

    We've been with Kelly Maddox Training for about a year, and our only regret is not coming sooner…read more Our daughter trained at another local barn for many years before this, so we've experienced more than one program -- and the difference has truly been night and day. The training at KMT is structured and intentional. Flatwork matters. Exercises have purpose, and that purpose is clearly communicated to the riders. There is real progression and thoughtful goal setting -- not just riding courses week to week. You can tell the trainers care deeply about long-term development. We've especially appreciated the transparency around show costs and lease or purchase discussions. Expectations are clear, and riders are encouraged to grow in a way that reflects a serious, competitive program. The barn reflects real pride in Maddox Family Farm -- beautiful, but more importantly clean, organized, and exceptionally well cared for. The horses are thoughtfully managed, and there is stability in the staff, including experienced grooms. That consistency says a great deal about how the program is run. Most importantly, our daughter has grown in confidence, grit, and resilience. She's learned how to work through fear and handle both success and setbacks in a much healthier way. For families looking for structured, professional training in a supportive environment, KMT has been an exceptional fit for us.

    As I write this, I'm approaching two years with Lisa at Burgeon Sport Horses -- and even now, it's…read morehard to put into words what this experience has meant to me. Burgeon didn't just bring me back to riding. It brought me back to myself. When I first came to Burgeon, I had been out of the saddle for five years. I came in with no guarantees -- just a deep love for horses, a willingness to work hard, and a quiet hope that maybe I could rebuild something I thought I had lost. What I found here was so much more: a trainer who believes in her riders, a program rooted in integrity, and a place that truly changes people from the inside out. Lisa is more than just a talented trainer -- she's a mentor who meets each rider where they are and helps them rise. Whether you're a complete beginner just finding your seat, or an advanced rider refining your skills, she sees the potential in every student. She doesn't just teach lessons -- she teaches you how to think, how to listen, how to partner with your horse. She builds confidence with patience, celebrates every step forward, and always holds space for growth. The program at Burgeon is built with care, depth, and real horsemanship at its core. The horses are happy, well-conditioned, and respected. Lisa pours herself into every ride, every student, every decision -- and you feel it the second you step into the arena. It's about the work -- the quiet, powerful kind that builds a rider not just physically, but mentally and emotionally, too. For me, this journey has been transformational. I've gone from being unsure and full of self-doubt to finding a deep confidence that's changed my life far beyond the barn. I've grown stronger -- not just as a rider, but as a person. I've learned how to trust myself again. How to be patient with progress. How to take up space. I've found community, purpose, and a sense of belonging I didn't know I was missing. Every lesson, every ride, every hard day and breakthrough moment -- it's all shaped me. And I wouldn't trade it for anything. Burgeon Sport Horses is the kind of place that stays with you. It's for people who are ready to work hard, grow with intention, and build something real. I feel so incredibly lucky to be a part of it. Lisa has changed my riding, and she's changed me -- and this is still just the beginning. -- Maddie S.

She gave me time and sufficient opportunity to assess the horse's suitability. This clearly demonstrated that she was most interested in making a good match than making a quick sale. I am very pleased with the horse I bought from her and it was an enjoyable process to boot!

That's what I loved most about her program-- she truly personalizes her lessons to fit your progress. One of her best skills is that she is acutely in tune with your form, comfort level, and confidence. She is so good at understanding how the human body interacts with the horse so when you're learning the fundamentals, you're learning it from an almost anatomical perspective. I originally started out at a different equestrian center but the instructor there made me feel anxious and unsure every time. I carried a lot of that over to Julie's lessons where I had to unlearn a lot of bad habits. In my almost year of riding under her guidance, I've learned proper techniques and gained back my confidence. Julie has the innate ability to make you feel safe and secure when riding. I love that she teaches to build confidence so you can master the technical skills. If you are ever thinking about horseback riding but scared to try it, get a lesson with Julie. An instructor like her is one of a kind.

I own a 6 year old off-the-track Thoroughbred, and since he's been with Dani and Joe, he's become a different horse. He was anxious and reactive at our old barn, but here, he's settled down into a gentle packer that is a joy to be around. Dani and Joe are patient and kind in their training, and they understand the needs of a young horse. Danielle and Ky also provide wonderful daily care to your horses -- I don't feel like I need to worry about whether or not my horse will get his feed or supplements when I'm not there, they care as much as I do! We recently had an emergency situation with my horse and Joe and several other members of the Vanguard team stepped up to help my horse while I drove up to meet the vet. I felt truly supported by a family, and I am eternally grateful for them. The facility at Five Star is also gorgeous, well-kept and has plenty of space for everyone.

I'm so glad I found them when I decided to start riding again! They have great school horses and don't pressure you to buy a horse (even though I eventually did thanks to them finding me the perfect horse). They have definitely pushed me to be a better rider each lesson but they are patient and teach to every level. Plus they are flexible, reasonably priced, and fun to be around!! They have literally changed my life In so many positive ways. Stop daydreaming and come on down to Five Star (which is a great barn) and check them out. You won't regret it!
