Our goal for our students is for them to develop confidence in their horsemanship skills in a fun, friendly, safe and educational environment! Our program has
transitioned into offering lessons primarily to students that have their own horse or leased horse available to them.
For more information on our horse leasing program follow this link.
Students are welcome to haul their own horses in for lessons or become part of the dedicated rider program in which they board their
horse/or leased horse at our facility and commit to taking a minimum of 6 lessons per month. Please contact Kaitlyn Hoyt for information on lessons in which you
would need to utilize a lesson horse to take a lesson at KHHorseconsulting.com.
