The instructors/trainers are out of this world. They cater to every single level (which is very challenging I have heard from other parents who have come from other barns). I consider myself very fortunate to have paired my daughter up with this riding team. My daughter loves to go there even on days she is not riding for the camaraderie. In addition to the fantastic training, they also have a great culture, the barn consists of really cool girls and great parents. I would not have changed a thing for her formative years there - thank you sincerely SE!!!!!!!

As my levels increase so do the locations in which to ride. That said, my new-found riding home is Summit Farm, located in North Salam, NY. Truth be told, with the recent move of my coach Michelle Nardini and my recent proficiency at riding, the time was perfect to change the environment and invest into a new horse. Established in 2003, Summit Farm is a family oriented equine facility located in the heart of North Salem. Ashley Yozzo, the incredible and delightful owner, prides herself and her aMARzing team on educating new and seasoned riders with a focus on Hunters and Equitation all while maintaining a fun, enjoyable atmosphere. Summit Farm is also on the North Salem Bridle Trails, a beautifully maintained trail system, which allows riders-from beginner to advanced-the delightful and moving opportunity to experience trail riding among some of the most beautiful vistas. When I arrived there for the first time I noticed a poster reading: "Ladies Trail Ride, a sunset trail ride finished off with refreshments." The trails combined with the sunset lighting sounded wonderful, so I asked "Can I come?" They kindly accepted and so without skipping a beat the Ladies Trail Ride quickly became The Ladies Trail Ride with Mar! As the only gentleman I was both thrilled and excited to participate with the ladies. But would they embrace me into this group? The fun photos show that we all bonded together as if we were kindred friends for decades. Now that was a beautiful night. Faces familiar and new were framed with the backdrop of Summit Farm; it was both a treat and a divine experience as we all watched the sunset glow on our smiles of enjoyment. This place is magical! Not just because of the location or the new friends gathered but the passion and love we all shared for the sport underscored by the beauty, the sunset and of course the fun wine & cheese gathering after the ride.

Arriving there is like being transformed to a magical private barn, where one immediately feels a sense of calm that mirrors the beauty of the carefully tended grounds. Each season brings its own majesty, billowy snow white blankets the rolling hills in Winter, Spring finds the bountiful gardens budding, Summer finds seemingly endless flowers abloom against a backdrop of every green imaginable and the view of the Autumn leaves ablaze leaves visitors breathless. The acres of groomed trails are always a delight for horse and rider both as well as the carefully planned pastures for supervised turnouts and indoor and outdoor competition level dressage rings. Laura Parker's reputation precedes her and the skill, intention and focus of her decades as a Dressage rider and trainer show in every aspect of the farm. Clients and horses alike are transformed by her and her competent staff's masterful riding lessons, conscientious attention to feeding, grooming and health concerns and consistent attention to every detail. Inner Circle Farm not only offers a superior cost structure value in training and boarding, its values of compassionate training and correct physical development for the Dressage horse and rider are apparent from the first moment one arrives.

They also had a couple of fall lessons over the last few years. She tried to book lessons for a weekend in October and was very aggressively pursued by a young teenager giving lessons to book. Although the price was now much higher, she decided to book 2 half hour lessons for the girls ($200). She was charged $2,500 for some package. The teenager had referred to a package but it was not clear to my daughter that she was being asked to sign up. How do you charge a person that amount without any indication that this charge is being applied to review? What kind of sales strategy is this to make young teenagers hound clients to lure them into a package deal that is not fully explained and charged to their account without giving them the opportunity to review charges and agree to them? This is a scam!
