Lesson Program at Kirkridge



The Dressage Lesson program at Kirkridge is somewhat unique.All school horses are trained in Advanced Level Dressage: Prix St.George level and up. This provides riders with an opprtunity to ride well schooled and balanced horses therefore progressing at a faster rate. It gives riders a chance to ride from the basic levels and work steadily to the highest levels. As you are well aware of, a trained schoolmaster is worth $25,000 and up. This gives riders an opportunity to ride qualilty horses without the financial outlay. Kirkridge students are both recreational and competitve riders, and Elaine welcomes riders to learn in a relaxed atmosphere. KEC is a private teaching facility with an indoor arena and 3 large outdoor dressage rings. Lessons are scheduled so that Elaine works each student without the hustle and bustle of a large boarding stable or riding school.
