QFES Lesson Program

The main focus at Quakerfield is our extremely comprehensive lesson program.  We offer lessons for children as young as three years old to adults.  Whether you are just beginning to learn to ride or have experience, we have a program that will fit your goals. 

Teaching safety and horsemanship in conjunction with riding is our main priority.  We set goals for our riders based on their desires, whether they may want to ride competitively or for pleasure.  Most of our students are placed into one-hour group lessons; we also offer private lessons for those who wish to learn one-on-one with their instructor.  Many students may wish to take more than one lesson a week and this is something that we are more than willing to accommodate.  

Beginner students will not only learn how to ride the horses, but learn how to be around them safely and properly.  In the first few lessons students can expect to learn how to lead a horse correctly, groom, and tack up their horse with the proper equipment necessary to ride.  We do provide safety helmets that are required to ride.  We also require all of our students to ride in a boot with a low heel.  Please ask your instructor if you have any questions.

QFES has several instructors offering a high level of flexibility for scheduling needs and a variety of gentle, safe horses.  Please see our Staff page for a short biography of each instructor.

QFES Lease Program

Many of our students choose the option to lease our horses.  This is something that is encouraged; it allows students to see what it is like to bond with a horse without actually owning one.  Students who lease are able to ride a few days a week in a non-lesson setting.  If leasing is something that may sound of interest to you please speak with your instructor and they will be able to provide you with more information.
