Retired Riding Instructor

wileneandmadison

I am a retired ARIA Certified Horseback Riding Instructor.  I was the founder and director of a Non Profit called Ponies and Kids.  I coached our Interscholastic Equestrian Team and up to 17 riders during local shows. We also sponsored multiple 4H Horse and Pony members. With years of lesson experience I want to share easy to understand and basic knowledge about horseback riding and care.  Although, most of this blog is about English Riding, those in other disciplines can glean information too. Please ask questions I would love to help with anything you need that has to do with horses. Enjoy!
