Lessons

Sande Performance Horses offers lessons to riders of all ages, beginning through advanced.

Kassi's specialty is teaching balance, control and feel in beginning/ intermediate riders. She has a natural way of building confidence while drilling in the basics in her fun, but challenging, lessons. Additionally, she directs a therapeutic riding program offering programs for riders with varying special needs -- www.therapeuticridingoftomorrow.org

Doug's specialty is teaching intermediate/ advanced riders with a long-term committment to ride well and a desire to ride competitively. From coaching beginning 4-H riders to win State Championships to coaching amateur riders to National and World Championships, he has done it all in helping riders to achieve their own personal riding goals. His lessons are extraordinarily in-depth and fairly intense.

All lessons start with Kassi in order to adequately prepare the rider's horsemanship skills before moving on to Doug. His famous words of ''One more time...'' ensure both that the lesson will be longer than expected and that the student will undoubtedly 'get it' before the lesson ends.

Kassi offers private and group lessons, with prices ranging from $20 - $40 per lesson. Doug accepts new lesson clients on a case-by-case basis and charges $50 per private lesson.
