We currently have limited space available.
Horsemanship is the art of riding, handling, and training horses. Our Complete Horse Lessons include all of those and more as we explore the deep connection between horses and humans in a safe, accepting environment.
At New Leaf Farms, our focus is on enhancing the life skills and confidence of our clients through meaningful interaction with our experienced equines.
Lessons are in the saddle as well as on the ground. As we learn about the horses and how to care for them, we identify valuable skills and apply learning to real life situations. Equine assisted learning and personal development play a huge part of our program, identifying client strengths and challenges. Through use of obstacles we work to increase the confidence of the horses and students.
In our lessons we build basic riding ability. Learning to walk, steer and stop are important. But life isn't about running circles in an arena. Life is messy and has challenges; most of us struggle at times. New Leaf Farms is committed to enhancing the confidence, communication, and coping skills of our clients.
Our horses come from varied backgrounds and levels of experience. We use the individual needs and stories of the horses to apply learning in a safe and encouraging way. Our focus is how to overcome challenges with healthy thinking and habits including communication skills. This allows us to honour the horses' experiences and ensure their well-being while creating deep connections with them.
Our lessons include:
All lessons take place in our indoor arena. Helmets are available for use but students much purchase their own by the second month. Closed toed footwear is required. Boots with a small heel are ideal. Please dress appropriately for the weather- the arena is not heated or cooled.
