Our Girl Scout troop rode at Kinni Valley in Sept, the girls had so much fun, we returned in October for a 3 hour lesson/ride. The staff is WONDERFUL! The horses were very friendly and the staff did a fabulous job matching horse to rider. The girls had a GREAT time, we will definitely be back for more riding at Kinni Valley!"

I came to Kinni Valley Academy with very little confidence. Carolyn has tailored the lessons to help me feel confident and secure. She encourages me and makes me want to do more and try more. She makes everyone feel like a friend, not a client."- Judith Kayser, Woodbury, MN

I've been riding at Kinni Valley for 5 weeks and I already feel at home! Everyone is so friendly, and so are the horses. They welcome all kinds of riders, whether you’re interested in English or Western, showing or leisure riding. I'm always having fun and I never feel unsafe.‎"- Jennifer S. Woodbury, MN

Kinni Valley Academy has every feature we were looking for in a stable and instruction...but did not expect to find. It is the highlight of our child's week."- Patricia Cangemi, St. Paul, MN

Kinni Valley has almost become a second home for me. Not only is the riding experience amazing, but the atmosphere is overwhelmingly friendly. I have been riding here for almost ten years and there has never been a doubt in my mind that this is the best possible place for me to continue my riding."

After not riding for almost ten years, I am now 'back in the saddle again,' taking lessons from Carolyn and enjoying touching up my previous skills, as well as making the shift from Western to English riding! Carolyn has helped me build my skills and challenges me to become a more refined rider!"- Mary Paulson, River Falls, WI

Your stable's operation is everything that was promised. My take-home lesson was that it's not so much what you do when you ride as it is how you are: clear, firm, prompt, relaxed, confident, fearless, and happy. A formula for life!"- Don Judges
