Lessons & Rates
Enjoy our Comfortable and Relaxed Atmosphere
Whether riding for fun, love of horses, or the challenge of the sport we have a program suited to your needs.
At Earthbound Stables we offer many programs to suit each stage of riding. With our variety of school horses we can find the correct mount for each rider to learn and grow. Our riding programs can be purchased in different packages based on the level of riding, and being open throughout the year allows our students to stay on pace with our thoroughly planned curriculum. As our students progress, they will increase skill set, and have the opportunity to participate in horse shows, and Equestrian Canada Rider Level Testing.
