Ashley is a gem. She is a brilliant instructor with endless knowledge about horses and proper English riding. She also has the best school horses I’ve ever ridden. The combination of the two will work wonders on learning or improving how to ride. I can’t recommend her enough!

Absolutely recommend Ashley!! My daughter has been riding with her for almost a year. Ashley not only teaches how to ride, she teaches horsemanship, accountability, and responsibility too. My daughter looks forward to every lesson and her riding skills and confidence have grown immensely!
