Lamprecht Training, North Plains

Instructors build confidence in beginning and intermediate riders during lessons that guide students through the skill milestones of English riding en route to entry-level jumping and dressage. Early instruction is divided between time in the saddle and grooming in the stable, which can include everything from pre-ride brushing to giving a horse an impressive new paint job. As the rider’s skills progress, less time is needed to fulfill grooming duties, leaving more time for riding. Inclement weather poses no problem for aspiring equestrians, as the training center includes an indoor arena to complement its outdoor trails.
