Confidence and joy are just a riding lesson away.

Perhaps a movie sparked your interest in horses. Maybe your child begs for a pony every birthday and holiday. The reason you, or your child, decide to take a horse riding lesson may be unique, but the results are always the same: increased confidence, esteem, and joy.

Kinni Valley Riding Academy offers riding lessons to individuals of all skill levels. If you’re a beginner, we help you become more comfortable and confident on horseback, teaching you to really ride and communicate with your horse. If you’re more advanced, we’ll show you how to train your own horse while polishing your skills toward becoming an expert rider. No matter your experience, you’ll enjoy our patient and knowledgeable instructors, well-trained horses, and the unmatched beauty of the Kinnickinnic River Valley.

Taking riding lessons at Kinni Valley is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. Here, programs are tailored to your goals and skills. Our instructors are highly trained and stress communication: giving you the personalized instruction you need to grow and learn. Our horses are truly special. They’re carefully selected and highly trained, well-mannered, and extremely responsive. Combined, our instructors and horses make Kinni Valley the ideal place to learn how to ride or advance your skills.

To ensure productive learning (in a comfortable atmosphere), students ages eight through adult are grouped by similar age and ability.

Why take horse riding lessons?

The answer is simple. Lessons are your opportunity to turn an interest into a passion and gain the confidence, happiness, and pride that horseback riding can offer.
