A Lesson for every kind of learner.
The Ranch offers Western lessons for any age, skill level, and objective. Whether you have never ridden before, or have been riding all your life, our horses and coaching staff can improve your skills.
We offer a solid Basic Western Horsemanship Program for beginners, and for more advanced riders, we program Canadian Equestrian Federation classes for rider levels 1 through 4, and instructor and coaching classes as well.
The Ranch is the only riding stable we're aware of that offers a very popular Membership program. Through our lesson program, you can be certified as a member and enjoy the privilege of riding without a guide or instructor. You can set your own hours, ride your favourites, and go at your own pace with your favourite company - all because you are qualified to ride. Talk about membership having its privileges!
Please feel free to contact our head coach, Cheryl Gullion at 905-334-2398, or by email at coaching@ridetheranch.com.
We offer varying learning environments to suit your budget or learning style:
- Private Lessons:
For anyone who would like to set their own pace or to supplement group lessons - these one-on-one lessons are an ideal way to learn. Private lessons are also the ONLY option available to children under the age of 8.
$60.00/hour weekdays, $80.00/hour weeknights and weekends – flexible scheduling
- Semi-Private Lessons:
Have a partner you would like to learn with? These two-rider lessons have a similar intensity to the private lessons, but add the fun of comfortable companionship and group learning.
$40.00/person/hour weekdays, $50.00/person/hour weeknights and weekends – flexible scheduling
- Children & Small-Group (Family) Lessons:
These lessons involve a maximum of 4 people, a perfect environment for children - where fun is the key, but personal attention is vital - or for families wanting to learn together. Note that the Ranch will not involve beginner children in lessons with more than 4 people.
$40.00/person/hour – flexible scheduling
- Group Lessons – Basic Western Horsemanship (up to 8 people):
This option, for adults only, is a great way to learn in a fun environment, meet similarly minded riders, and keep the cost of lessons down.
$35.00/hour — pre-set start dates for 10-session lesson programs. Call or email for upcoming start dates and times.
