The Riding School at
Brandywine Farms
Private Lessons
All beginners and
students under evaluation/transferring from other programs are required to start in private lessons. Private lessons are 30 mins with one-on-one instruction that begins with basic horsemanship, grooming, and tacking and then moving to basic riding principles and are $75 per lesson. Once riders are able to walk, trot, steer around and over obstacles while maintaining balance they are eligible to move to a group of similar level students.
Group Lessons
Once riders have graduated from private lessons and are 100% self sufficient with retrieving their horses/pony, tacking, and grooming; they are able to move into group lessons of which we have multiple levels. Group lessons consist of 2 to 7 riders, students ride for one hour total as they will groom and tack prior to their lesson time.
Recreational lessons
Recreational lessons are designed as a "one time" lesson for groups of 2 to 4 and require no experience. These are one hour and in this time we will teach basic horsemanship principles, tacking and untacking, and basics of riding while maintaining a walk. Recreational rides are subject to availability and are $90 per person for the hour.
