Horseback Riding in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin (Dane County)

You might be asking yourself this exact question, “Why should I choose Equitate?” Well, there are a lot of reasons why Equitate is the best option. Whether you are choosing us as a place to just take lessons or a place for your show horse you will soon learn that what is special about Equitate is that each rider is treated as an individual. We specialize in catering to the needs of every person. No two people ride the same and we understand that. At Equitate, we get to know you, we help you, and we want you to succeed and enjoy horses as much as we do. Our motto is, “We’re not just a team, we’re a family.”

Equitate is also one of the most charming and beautiful facilities in the country. We are fortunate to have sixty-seven acres of Lake Country paradise just 5 miles from downtown Oconomowoc. Riders and their families are around an environment that is safe, wonderfully cared for, and kept incredibly clean. We pride ourselves on taking care to the utmost level, whether it comes to our horses, equipment, grounds, or clients. We love our barn and we hope you will too!... See More

We believe that through education, understanding and experiential opportunities, humans and horses can be positively transformed together and empowered to grow to their full potential. From day one, we hope to provide each one of our students with an indestructible foundation that will not erode in times of play or of emergency. This is knowledge that can prevent them from being a potential victim of horse related accident.

Our philosophy:
Basic dressage (Spanish Riding School) as a foundation for any discipline
George Morris and his method of teaching
United States Pony Club and their standards of horsemanship... See More

English riding lessons for all ages and levels of riding. I specialize in Dressage and offer Dressage lessons and Dressage Training for your horse as well. I have over 10 years of experience providing quality instruction.
I am happy to travel to you and your horse, or to have you come and ride one of my school horses. Please contact me via phone for competitive rates and any other questions!... See More

We offer saddle seat (English) and some western riding lessons to all levels of riders, from the first lesson to the most advanced rider. You do not have to own your own horse as we have riding programs for the serious show ring competitor as well as for newcomers - even Tiny Tots! In all facets of the learning process, we encourage a strong sense of camaraderie, sportsmanship and fun. We offer adult-only riding groups on Monday evenings. Our heated indoor arena allows us to maintain our lesson schedule year-round.

We would love for you to come and visit us for a tour and watch us give a riding lesson so you can learn first-hand about our program and teaching style. We give lessons Monday through Thursday and on weekends. Please call ahead if you would like to come for a visit.

We also offer camps, birthday parties, Girl Scout and Boy Scout visits to earn badges, boarding and training services. Clients are also welcome to join our Youth Club which meets once a month and participates in horse activities, community service, fun outings, and more!

At Phantom Ranch we teach ‘Rider Independence’. This means the student is taught all aspects of horse care, ground work and riding. Students are taught how to catch and groom their horse before the lesson, and how to untack and release their horse after the lesson. Students are challenged to experience different saddle disciplines as well as other styles - driving with our minis, vaulting on our draft horses and navigating our trail obstacle courses in-hand and mounted.

We offer trail rides, week long summer horse camps; Girl Scouts and other group education, horsemanship lessons and volunteer opportunities. We are a ETS host for clinics and competitions. We are currently looking for summer staff who would like to work in a Christian environment and have a passion for training kids with horses.

We believe the more experience a student has with horses on all levels, the better they will understand and communicate with any horse they work with. We aim to build strong horsemanship skills enabling students to go into any equestrian field and succeed. Email or call for more information.... See More
