Our youth program is designed to teach the student a broad range of horsemanship skills, in addition to how to ride a horse. In the style of the old world horse academy, we teach the students horse care, horse psychology, grooming, tacking, and other aspects of horse keeping. The program is built on the foundation of:
We tailor the program to meet the needs of two age groups: the Itty Bitty Riders - ages 4 to 7 years; and the Young Riders Program - ages 8 years and up. The Young Riders Program consists of a one hour lesson with an instructor and may be private or semi-private (2-3 students). The lesson plan includes both ground school and horseback training. The goals of the Young Riders Program are described below. Ground school:

This program is paced for the student and the interests of the student are taken into consideration during lesson planning and goal setting. The lessons can be taught either Western or English depending on the desires and goals of the student. Learn how you can get 10% off your Horsemanship Academy tuition. Click here.

Horses are a part
of our heritage and it is a joy to offer skills of this heritage to our children. We have
found that horses enhance the lives of those who come into contact with them. It is our
pleasure to be able to offer this gift to children. Working with horses teaches many skill
and behaviors that prove useful later in life, as well as teaching a respect for animals
and nature. The Bright Way Youth Riding Program is our way of sharing those
benefits with future generations.
