    This was my first time taking riding lessons. I've done trail rides while on vacation, but nothing…read moresuper official. I was a bit nervous at first taking lessons, since I had no idea which places would be good There are soooo many places around the western Mass area, so it can feel overwhelming But I'm so glad I came here first for lessons! Plus, it's only 5 minutes by car for me, so very convenient!! My instructor, Mara, was super friendly Not only did she teach me how to ride, but the first half of my lesson was actually becoming familiar with all of the horse's materials. She is extremely knowledgable and walked me through everything step-by-step. Plus the barn and everything around it is immaculate, sparkling clean! I was blown away. The horses are also well groomed, happy, and healthy. I'm definitely coming back here for lessons!!

    It took me a long time to find the right barn when my family moved to MA a few years ago. Infinity…read moreEquestrian was worth the wait. Laura Etzel is a talented, gentle and kind horse woman with a lifetime of experience and the vibe at her barn reflects that. The other trainers are wonderful as well and the horses receive the care and attention they deserve. School horses are given just as much consideration and students are taught that riding isn't just about your time in the saddle- it's about caring for your horse, their needs, your tack, and being mindful of the rest of the people and horses at the barn. The kids and students here are kind and friendly, no snooty antics or cliques. Truly a team/family.

    My five year old, Ruby, is a natural horse kid. She doesn't clean her room, she mucks out her…read morestall. When I'm making dinner she doesn't play with dolls she practices her jumping on her hobby horse. She was given a hand me down bouncy horse and spends hours 'riding'. Trouble is, no one wants to actually put a five year old on a live animal. Five year olds, especially girls, are really still very little. Their legs are too short to reach the stirrups, they don't have muscle strength in their thighs to grip, and if the horse bolts they will go flying, because they simply aren't strong enough to control the big animals. I spent a lot of time asking and googling, and trying to find anyone who does riding classes for kids under 7, and finally I came to the end of my long journey at Clarion Farms. Carly, the sweet owner of the school, works with as many as 15 of these little budding equestrians at any time, as well as running a summer camp for young riders. She keeps some very mellow ponies and undersized helmets on site, and she really understands how to work with very young kids. A one hour class consists of saddling, including grooming the pony, leading it to the ring, 15 minutes of riding on a long lead, then brushing the horse down and cleaning tack. Perfect! I do highly recommend Carly to any parent who has a little kid who wants nothing but to get onto a horse. I wish she wasn't so far away from us, and the drive does make it impossible to get there more than a few times this summer, but it is so worth it for the happiness I can see on Ruby's face when she is on the pony!
