I specialize in ages 8 through adults. Those with experience or those just beginning. I am a fun, professional, down to earth, instructor who completely loves what she does! I teach everything from a safety standpoint in an atmosphere of encouragement. My lessons are geared toward your goals and include not just riding but, also horsemanship(grooming, saddling, parts of the horse, and lots more).

Your first lesson is an evaluation lesson where we go over what your reasons for wanting to learn to ride are and what you'd like to achieve. During this initial lesson, you'll learn how to safely work around the horse, grooming, tacking-up and of course, you'll ride! This first lesson takes about 90 minutes. This time also gives us both an idea if my teaching methods and style are a good match for you. Feel free to give me a call directly to set-up this initial lesson. I hope to hear from you soon!

Our goal here at Destiny Ranch, is of course to teach kids how to ride, but also alot of other ways equines can enrich our lives. We are dedicated to making sure that everyone has a great time riding, and also form a bond with one of our AMAZING lesson horses.



We want to teach everyone how, to not only have proper position and control over their horse, and their own body but also, how to have a blast while doing so! We hope that over time, our students learn pateince, dedication, hard work, balance, strength, focus, and that even horses have their good and bad days. But most importantly we hope to watch all of our students grow to be wonderful riders, and pass through all of the differnt ranks of riding!
