Horseback Riding in Willard, North Carolina (Pender County)

With over 25 years of experience in both English and Western disciplines, your trainer Gali can give you the start--and the coaching!--that you or your child need to be successful and confident in the saddle! We show at the local, regional, and national level, but also am super happy to teach basic horsemanship skills to those that simply want to enjoy their horse and not show. All ages, sizes, colors, genders welcome!... See More

Welcome to Spurling’s Hidden Treasures Riding Academy! You’re new home for horseback riding lessons for adults and children ages 6 and up! I was the original horseback riding instructor of Gallberry Stables in Hope Mills, NC and have moved to my own facility with a new name!

My name is Tiffany Spurling and I have been riding Horses for over 22 years and training horses and riders alike for the better part of 14 years now. Throughout that time I have acquired my own horses that are very good with the most beginner riders to the most advanced riders.

I offer my services to beginners through advanced. I have taught many riding styles such as Western Pleasure, Barrel Racing, Pole Bending, other Speed/Fun Events, Hunter/Jumper, Show Jumping, Cross-Country/ Eventing, Equitation, and Dressage. HAUL INS FOR LESSONS ARE WELCOME!

I do not claim to be a "certified" trainer, however, I have had many people tell me they have learned more in one lesson with me than they have in a year with a "certified" trainer. In the horseworld, just because one is certified does not mean they are the most knowledgeable. Most good trainers have had a lot of experience and never think they are too old or advanced to learn something new.

I have also worked under and trained horses with Cutting Horse Champion Jerry King. However, I do not offer cutting lessons. I learned from him how to start a horse from the ground up and how to train problem horses as well with great success.

We participate in local shows and take part in events at the Carolina Horse Park and many other show venues. We have a very family friendly environment so come join us in the equestrian experience!

Please list your e-mail and/or phone number in your Needs/Goals section when you reply so that I can contact you! Also feel free to visit our Facebook Page listed as Spurling’s Hidden Treasures Riding Academy and use the links to also find our website as well! Look us up, come out and watch a lesson before you chose us, and meet the instructor and the horses! I look forward to hearing about your interests and goals!

Introducing *Amerika*.The southeast's first, interactive, riding simulator. Amerika will be available for lessons, events and seat clinics.

She has proven herself at expos across the west coast as a crowd pleaser and often has spectators four deep watching her lessons. An invaluable tool to learn proper, independent seat and sensitive hands, Amerika can go all day, every day. Because she is stationary, instructors can adjust the student manually even at a canter, helping them find the optimum riding position. At her most interactive setting, she responds to subtle rein and leg aids, like a living horse. For beginner riders or riders with fear issues she can be fully controlled by the instructor. If you would be interested in hosting Amerika at your facility please feel free to contact me.

Bridget O’Neill began riding almost as soon as she could walk.

Bridget enjoys working with riders of all ages and abilities. Safety and a solid foundation are the important components of her lesson program. She believes wholeheartedly in the value and establishing strong basic skills in her students. As riders progress under her guidance, they gain insight into the complex relationship between horse and rider. Bridget develops riders who are well-rounded in total horsemanship and who know how to thoroughly care for their horses and equipment in addition to riding competently no matter what discipline they select.
