At St. Charles Farm, our instructors are experienced and accomplished in their respective fields.  Riding lessons can be given on your horse or one of our professionally trained horses.

You will find that St. Charles Farm is different from other schools in the area.  We believe that students should understand horses and horse care, and not just riding.  Our beginner lessons focus on safety around horses and basic steering. Once students have demonstrated success in the basics they are allowed to take more advanced lessons in jumping, eventing, etc.
