Young children in cowboy hats meet a horse at Ocean View Stables

The Junior Club, ages 3 to 6 Pony rides every week, and a barn to belong to.

Two pony rides a week and one 30-minute kids lesson a month for $256.50, 10% below single prices, with every club event included.

For the youngest riders

Consistency now, real lessons later

The Junior Club is for riders aged 3 to 6 who are not ready for an hour of lessons but light up every time they see a horse. Twice a week they ride two laps of the arena on a full-sized horse, led by hand by one of our horsemanship guides. Once a month they take a 30-minute lesson: grooming, leading and sitting in the saddle.

A child who rides twice a week for a year is comfortable, gentle and confident around horses in a way a single pony ride never builds. When they are ready for a full hour, they move up to the Lesson Club and Level One.

Members belong to the barn. Once a month families come out in the evening for youth Movie Night at the Barn: a student potluck and a horse film like Spirit together. Clinics, barbecues and new events are added as we grow, and the dues go toward the care of the horses your child rides.
