Mahogany Bay Farm offers a comprehensive lesson program for adults and children of all ages and riding abilities on our horses or yours. We specialize in hunters and hunter seat equitation and focus on instilling an effective yet elegant riding position on the flat and over fences. Our lesson program curriculum focuses on rider position and control of the horse, use of aids, and progressive and challenging flatwork exercises as the foundation for correct and effective riding over fences. Poles and small x-rails are then introduced to strengthen the rider's base of support and help stabilize their arm and hand position while jumping. Learning to monitor their horse's pace and developing eye control to effectively ride a predetermined course is practiced. The curriculum then continues with advanced flatwork and dressage movements that are required in the big equitation classes. Jumping exercises with poles, gymnastics, and courses of varying heights and difficulty are intertwined as well to keep lessons enriching and fun. We also focus on proper horsemanship so riders learn to take care of their horse and tack before and after riding. This comprehensive program creates responsible, confident, and knowledgeable equestrians. We strive to offer a fun, educational, and relaxed atmosphere while helping our riders achieve their equestrian goals. Whether you just want to enhance your skills as a rider, or you want to compete at horse shows, we welcome you to join us as a great place to meet friendly people who share your passion for horses!
