Ascend Equestrian was founded on the principle of family, friends, and providing a safe environment in which to learn and have fun. We focus on building a well-rounded horseperson by not only teaching students to ride, but also providing lessons in horsemanship, sportsmanship and showmanship. It is with this focus that we build successful riders who are competitive both at the local and national levels and contenders at national finals year after year.

Ascend Equestrian offers a comprehensive lesson program for children and adults ages 6 and up, from beginner to advanced levels. Our lesson program features small classes with no more than four riders in a lesson at a time, scheduled according to age and level, providing individualized quality instruction for all riders. In order to provide a safe environment that is conducive to learning, there are never more than five clients riding in the arena at a time, a feature that is unique to our training program.

Beginner riders start off in a private lesson to learn the basics of steering, controls, and position, before progressing to a semi-private lesson. Lessons are grouped according to level, age and height jumping in order to maximize progress.

Our lesson times are as follows:

Private Lessons- 30 minutes
Semi Private with 2 riders- 45 minutes
Semi Private with 3-4 riders- 1 hour

In addition to time spent in the saddle, riders should plan to spend an additional 30-45 minutes before their lesson and 30 minutes to an hour after their lesson grooming, tacking, bathing, grazing, and caring for their horses. Initially, this process will be guided by one of our instructors or working students, with the goal of creating independent knowledgeable horsewomen and men who can care for their own mounts.

We offer several safe, quality school horses of all sizes, skills, and levels from beginner to advanced. We treat our school horses like our top show horses, providing for the best possible experience for our riders on horses that are happy, healthy and ready to perform their best for their lessons. Our school horses are never ridden more than 5 days per week and not more than once per day and have access to the same top care provided to our show horses.

We invite new clients to schedule an evaluation lesson to meet our horses and instructors and learn just how fabulous our lesson program is. This evaluation lesson also serves as an opportunity for our trainers to assess our new clients’ riding and ensure that we can provide the best possible horse and lesson suitable to their needs and goals. After the initial evaluation lesson, riders are required to sign up for a minimum of one lesson per week in order to continue in our program.

In addition to our lesson program, we offer several quality horses for lease, half lease, and quarter lease for those looking to take their riding to the next level.... See More

Experienced Riding Coach/Trainer/Instructor Available for Lessons

Hello, horse enthusiasts! I am a retired riding coach/trainer/instructor with a passion for the equestrian world and a desire to get "back into the saddle again" and share my knowledge and skills with budding riders.

I am seeking grassroots, home-based beginner riders of any age within a 30-40 minute radius of Indianapolis, IN 46268. I offer private and group lessons at an affordable $35 per hour.

I Will Travel to You! I no longer have access to horses. So, I am looking for students needing instruction on their horse and location. There is no need to worry about transportation; I will come to your farm or location, bringing my expertise and enthusiasm to your doorstep.

Specializing in Beginner Hunter Jumper and Equitation, my teaching primarily focuses on the English Style of Riding, Beginner Jumping, Beginner to Intermediate Hunter Jumper, and Hunt Seat Equitation.

I am a Retired Hunt Seat Certified. As a retired instructor and coach of the American Riding Instructors Association and retired Interscholastic Equestrian Team Coach, I bring a wealth of experience and a proven track record to my teaching.

My experience extends beyond coaching and training. I was the Founder and Director of an equine non-profit called "Ponies and Kids." I ran successful lesson, showing, camp, and outreach programs in West Lafayette, Indiana.

After several rewarding years in retirement, during which I've had the joy of helping raise my grandchildren, I find myself drawn back to a long-standing passion of mine. My fulfillment from family life is immense, but I can no longer ignore the persistent calling to return to my chosen vocation of teaching children, young adults, and adults how to care for and ride a horse.

It's not just about mastering the skill of riding but also instilling in them a deep respect and understanding of how to care for horses safely. As I step back into this world, I carry with me the wisdom of years and a heart full of passion, ready to guide the next generation of horse enthusiasts.... See More

I offer instruction in classical dressage-based horsemanship for any level of rider. My methods are based on 'Old World' military horsemanship that takes the techniques of training horses for jousting, mounted archery, mounted combat, etc. and adapts them to practical horsemanship. These methods are rooted in centuries of study in the nature and biomechanical interplay between horse and rider, handed down from master to student, throughout most of recorded history. No force or coercion is used in this style of training, but rather the goal is trust and forming a partnership, conditioning and making the horse supple, with the goal of improving their ability to carry the rider, athletically, for many happy years. If this sounds like the better aspects of what is now called "Natural Horsemanship, well the classical masters had a name for it, they called it "Horsemanship". :)

If this style of horsemanship sounds like something you would be interested in learning more about, I invite you to come out, meet me and my lesson horses, and let's discuss your horsemanship goals and how I might help you achieve them. Feel free to contact me at with any questions you might have.... See More
