17 Oct Getting Started Young
Looking for a sport for your little one to start? There have been many studies that say children that ride learn responsibility and how to care for something other than their self. All of our trainers a experienced in helping children build their skills in riding, teach them safety around the horses, and just to have fun! Lagniappe offers many different disciplines including, Eventing, Dressage and Hunter/Jumpers. We also have a wonderful pony club instructed by Catherine Insley. Contact the trainers to setup a lesson.
