We have added to our stables our weekly/monthly Equestrian After School Program for children from K-8th grade. The after school program works as a part of the equestrian club for children between K-8th Grade. It begins in August and continues until the end of May.

The After School Riding Program focus is an introduction to horseback riding as an equestrian sport. 

We ensure that our students develop strong equestrian foundations through the use of safe and sound training techniques in all of our horse riding lessons.

The purpose of this program is to foster the next generation of knowledgeable riding, dedicated horse owners and introducing school-age children to horse care and horseback riding in a safe, welcoming environment.

In addition to providing excercise, learning to ride and care for the horses teaches many life skills, including responsabilities, patience, perseverance and how to set and achieve goals.

Unlike other forms of excersice, children experience the emotional bond that comes from caring for and riding a horse-partnership with another living being like no other.

Moccasin Stables utilizes a prescribed curriculum based on United State Pony Club (USPC), to teach children about horse care and handling in addition to horseback riding. Through an introductory of series of weekly lessons, kids learn how to properly groom a horse, parts of a saddle, as well as basic riding skills to achieve the more upper level disciplines like Jumping and Dressage.

Children during the year will have the opportunity to pass Level of riding, horsemanship and stable manager according to USPC (United State Pony Club) and USEF (United State Equestrian Federation). We offer testing to pass Pony Club  levels D-1, D-2, D-3. Once each level is achieved the children will recieve a badge from Pony Club.

We provide horses to all the children that are riding in our program.

Horses are big soul healers and teach to our young people how gain more confidence, be a better leader, be more responsible for their actions and provide peace and tranquility to troubled souls. For that and many other reasons, we'd like  to show to the children this entire fascinating world of the horses.
