Hidden Acres’ instructor, Shannon Norris, brings more than 30 years of equine expertise to the stables, which border a natural wildlife preserve to ensure a peaceful, tree-lined setting where students can focus completely on learning the reins of riding. The center’s lessons take place in groups of six or fewer and provide a two-hour introduction to horses, the techniques used to ride a horse, and the best loopholes for filing a horse’s taxes. Hidden Acres’ children's camps give wee riders an opportunity for greater saddle time. Beginner and intermediate riders receive hands-on experience to discover proper handling, leading, tying, grooming, and tacking-up practices. Each half-day session is filled with intense periods of instruction designed to instill safe riding habits and foster a healthy relationship between rider and horse, with enough time left over for a siesta in a giant horse hammock.
