I'm not any help this time.. But I can only say, I'm happy about you that you want to go horse riding :) I'm riding horses too, and I think it's awesome that more and more people are staring ride horses :)

EssTer ,
i have only riddin 3 times my whole life, but now that i'm older i'm doing a lot of more.

we are moving in a year or so to Tennisee so i'm hoping we move to a place that has enough room for a horse. so in the mean time i'm researching horses and trying to find a place close to me to ride or take lessons.

Hi Guys! :)

I think it would be fun to take lessons. Do you have to have a horse? Or do they have them there to ride?

i remember when i took riding lessons, it was fun and i loved the horses that my teacher had! especially one of them, his name was Appaletta Moon, we would just call him Moon for short. he was the calmest and he ussually always listened, anyway, i was provided a horse when i went to riding lessons, and i have to say, you learn a lot more than u think there is but it is fun. Good luck on finding somewhere to ride, i do not live in ur area but there are always the websites u can look up in ur area.

Amber- each place is different. most places provide horses and some places let you bring your own horse.

QueenChyna- Appaletta Moon is a neat name. my favorite horse i have ridden was a palomino named marshmellow.no fancy name but he was such a smooth ride and easy to lead. when we go back to that place i'm asking to ride him.we are planning on going back in a couple weeks.
