In Your Dreams Farm

On the 30-acre parcel of woods and pasture belonging to In Your Dreams Farm, head instructor Keely Ryan grooms students of all ages into skilled and steady horseback riders through lessons in hunter and jumper and western riding. Her commitment to excellence mirrors that of the farm’s honorable history: prior to the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, it hosted the US Equestrian Team for pre-event training sessions and post-event lessons on how to explain Olympic history to a horse. Today, students ranging from absolute beginners to gold-medal favorites refine their techniques in an immersive equestrian environment, complete with two outdoor jumping areas and a lighted indoor arena. Throughout the summer, the farm also hosts youngsters for four-day riding camps, which gives them the chance to participate in two lessons each day, rides along wooded trails, and games.

The Groupon Guide to: Astronaut Skills

Astronauts need to be world-class athletes, die-hard patriots, and scientific masterminds, but any montage of astronaut training also reveals these other crucial skills they possess:

  • Holding your breath for more than 30 seconds, even if someone is trying to make you laugh
  • Saying "Tang tastes as good as orange juice" with a straight face
  • Being blessed with particularly flappable cheeks
  • Juggling three beanbags at once (if you're that good on Earth, imagine how good you'll be without gravity!)
  • Being bald or having very little hair (male astronauts only)
  • Naming all the planets in correct order in fewer than three tries
  • Providing their own space suit

Do you have the unexpected skills needed to be an unlikely astronaut? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
