Sagehill Stables offers four different lesson programs to accomodate riders of all ages and abilities, from beginner through advanced levels. Our diverse team of coaches with expertise in primarily English (& some western) disciplines. Our programs include anything from ground-work to jumping, and are committed to teaching our students to ride and work safely with horses.
We believe in horses for life - and that all individuals can benefit from the love of horses. Our programs are designed to teach the foundations of safety and animal welfare so that students have the necessary knowledge to continue with any horse-related endeavours. Sagehill students are encouraged to pursue their riding dreams whether it be getting on the trails, over fences or over fears. From winning in the show ring or completing Equine Canada Riding Levels. Let us know what your goals are and we will help to get you there! See our programs below! |
