For the Rider Who Wants More!

Accelerated Riders™ work it out at Fallbrook Riders Field

In the Accelerated Rider™ Program, riders will experience a rich diversity of horsemanship opportunities that will accelerate their riding skills. 

This is for the rider who really wants to jump into their riding dreams with both feet!  Complete arena work program developed by a nationally certified instructor, meets three times a month, then, once a month, lessons will be held off location either at Fallbrook Riders Field or trail riding on a scenic southern California equestrian trail.  Additionally, there will be "horsemanship homework" (making this program ideally suited for the home schooled families) that includes everything from basic horse anatomy to more advanced work in understanding natural aids, timing and rider & horse mechanics.   Lesson activites will be scheduled around farrier and equine dentist visits.   Riders will also be encouraged to attend as many "field trips" as possible to polo matches, dressage clinics and Gymkhana shows.  Every rider in the Accelerated Rider™ Program will have the opportunity to compete in two local schooling shows per year.

Parents are always welcome to stay and watch any lessons, clinics and attend events with their child.  However, if you've got errands to run, please feel free to drop your child with us - we'll take good care of her or him!  If you're running late, don't worry!  There's always plenty of horse work to be done.  We can give your child an extended education in mucking and cleaning out horse stalls!!
