Lessons
SFE hosts a boutique riding school with a focus on horsemanship and safety.
We offer a few limited beginner lessons. Our focus is goal driven riders looking to challenge testing or showing.
Most of our programs require a commitment to ride 2+ times per week.
Lesson prices using our horses start at $75/ lesson.
Our lesson schedule is currently full. Please email us to inquire. or sign up on the wait list below.

OUR PHILOSOPHY
SFE offers top level education programs on and with horses. We have individualized lesson, part-boarding & boarding programs catering to the needs of the individual student, boarder and horse.
We believe students and horses need variety in their lives. We offer hunter, jumper, dressage, western, mounted games, trail riding, eventing and more at our facility. We encourage our students & boarders to explore all the disciplines to develop well-rounded riders and horses! We stress safety and a positive learning environment.
SFE has a maximum of 1-4 riders per lesson, depending on the program, to allow for the best and safest learning environment.
Our school horses are our family. They are incredibly patient and kind, as well as well trained. All of the horses in our program are show quality horses that love their jobs.
We want to teach horse people, not riders
