Tempo Sport Horses offers quality instruction to both youths and adults. Our program teaches students to understand a horse’s natural movement and how we can influence this movement as riders. A solid foundation starts with focusing on gaining control and understanding of one’s own body movements and biomechanics so that the rider can effectively influence the horse’s natural movement.
Our riding philosophy is based upon a deep respect for horses as a living being and how we can improve their lives through good horsemanship. As part of our program, students learn the importance of careful grooming and basic horse health care, how to properly maintain tack and other equipment used for riding, as well as understanding the basic stabling requirements necessary to maintain a healthy horse.
We offer expert instruction in Hunter/Jumper and Dressage using our well trained lesson horses or your own horse. You have several opportunities’ per year to attend and compete in regional shows in both Hunter/Jumper and Dressage. Coaching is available at all shows. We also prepare those students who wish to show on the A circuit. Our program has produced regional, state and national champions.
Mommy (Daddy) and Me Riding Lessons Mommy and me classes are set up as an introduction to riding for children ages 3-5. During these classes, children and their parents bond over grooming and handling ponies. The child progresses at their own pace and will begin riding when the comfort level of both the parent and child allow.
