At WTS lessons aren’t simply limited to what happens the moment you mount the horse. Riders learn the skills needed to be competent and proficient at all aspects of handling the horses they ride, from the moment they enter the stall and halter their mount; to grooming, tacking, longing, groundwork, warming up, riding, cooling down, rinsing and putting away.

Riders also learn; to not only be able to identify and correctly place, fit and adjust the tack and training aids they are using, but also understand why certain tack, bits, or training aids are needed. In addition they’re taught the ability and technique to use them properly and responsibly.

All riders, be it English, western , trail, dressage, jumping, performance, or whatever discipline you choose; regardless if it’s to compete, show, or just have fun, are taught a solid foundation and set of riding skills. These skills incorporate the proper body position and movements as well as correct placement and usage of hand, leg, seat, voice and training aides. A Strong emphasis is placed on not only what to do, but why you are doing it, and why your horse understands and responds.

WTS strives to give its students not only exemplary riding skills, but also a well rounded understanding of the techniques they are using, the reasoning and logic behind those techniques, and a better understanding of the horse as a whole.

It doesn’t matter how big or small your goals and ambitions are regarding riding. The art of doing so correctly cannot be over valued. Learning to ride correctly, responsibly, and with an understanding of, when, where, how, and why,  to apply a few simple universal techniques can make you a competent and successful rider irregardless of what breed, size, shape, industry, or discipline the horse your paired with prevails from.
