The goal of of my training program is to enrich the lives of others with horses. I want my students to not only become excellent riders, but take away an experience they will remember for a lifetime. I believe the educational and therapeutic benefits of equestrian activities are unmatched by any other. I have been riding my entire life, with experience in virtually all equestrian disciplines and a heavy focus on hunter/ jumper. In 2009 I became a CHA certified riding instructor, and I have been teaching full time every since. I teach beginner through advanced lessons, but most enjoy introducing absolute beginners to the world of horses, the joy is contagious!... See More

Lightfoot Horse Farm is located in Chico, CA (specifically Cohasset, CA) surrounded by Northern California’s most picturesque scenery! We are a small family farm, teaching private beginner lessons to children and adults alike. What sets us apart from other riding facilities is that we teach horsemanship, rather than just riding lessons. Whereas other facilities throw students up in the saddle at the first lesson, focusing on just one discipline of riding, we start from the ground up. Students become well-rounded, learning groundwork, handling, grooming, tacking, caring, feeding, and communicating with horses, as well as riding and basic vet care.

We do not focus on one discipline of riding, but incorporate both Western and English styles of riding in our lessons. We utilize all of our resources – from the round pen, to the arena, to the jump field, to the miles and miles of trail that surround our property. Lightfoot Horse Farm teaches natural horsemanship, a philosophy of working with horses based on the horse’s natural instincts and methods of communication, with the understanding that horses do not learn through fear or pain, with an emphasis on safety and education....
