Hop in the Saddle
Legacy Stables Riding Programs
Lessons
All of our riding programs are structured around the same principle: to allow riders to build a holistic foundation of skills and close connection with a horse. We do this by teaching safety, proper riding and horse-care techniques both on and off the horse, how to communicate with your horse, and of course feeding a treat at the end!
Birthday Parties
Horsey Birthday Parties are a blast at Legacy Stables! We have horses of all sizes to meet the needs of all riders. They are all very gentle, well-trained, and love kids! Open to children ages 2 & up. Birthday Parties can take place year round, rain or shine since we have an indoor arena, indoor stabling and heated viewing rooms for those chilly days.
One Time Rides
One-Time Riding for families, couples or groups of people looking to enjoy that human-horse connection. Come for 1 hour, brush your horse, ride in the indoor arena and outdoors if weather permits, and then feed your horse a treat at the end. Great for a special date, a family bonding experience, or to try out horseback riding like you’ve always wanted! Open year-round.
Own-A-Horse Camp
At Own-A-Horse-Camp you get to experience what it is like to own a pony or horse for an entire week. You will learn all aspects of horse care including feeding, grooming and stable management. And yes, you will have an opportunity to ride a horse every day! Open to children 6 and older, teenagers and adults.
Horses Make Great Therapists
Karins Horse Connection Programs
Vaulting
Equestrian vaulting is a unique sport and an art form that combines dance and gymnastics on a moving horse. In addition to being a fun way to work with horses, vaulting promotes balance, confidence, strength and oneness with the horse. It builds horsemanship skills, artistic expression, teamwork, responsibility and more!
Therapeutic
Therapeutic Horse Connection is our 501(c)3 non-profit which provides equine centered therapeutic programs open to people of all ages and abilities – everyone is welcome! We offer Adaptive Vaulting, Therapeutic Riding, a Farm Work Therapy program, and the opportunity for groups to come on Field Trips and experience the stables and ride the horses. And for those that may not physically be able to come to the stables, we can come to you with our certified therapy horse, ‘Peanut’!
Field Trips
Our Field Trip program offers 1.5 hours of hands-on horse fun which includes time with many different horses of all sizes and various stations to rotate through. In these stations students will get to tour the barn, learn how to groom a horse, how to be safe around them, and other fun facts. They will experience Riding, Vaulting, horsey games, and more!
EZ Time
We are excited to offer the “EZ Time” program! Spend 60 minutes grooming, leading, or grazing. Use the time to enjoy nature, relax, reflect, and rest your soul.
