Western Riding Lessons
Saddle up and experience the joy of Western riding at Mountain View Equestrian, where lessons are thoughtfully built for every level — beginner to seasoned. Our passionate instructor guides you with skill, patience, and heart, helping you build a bond with your horse at every turn. To ensure a safe, enjoyable ride, all participants must wear a helmet, long pants, and closed-toe shoes, and return a signed liability form before their first session. Full lesson payment is due before your arrival.

Intro Lesson
Never been on a horse before? Our 30-minute intro lesson is the perfect place to start. You'll get a hands-on taste of grooming, saddling, and riding in a relaxed, no-pressure environment — just enough to know if this is your thing (spoiler: it usually is).
Private Riding Lesson
Our one-hour private lessons are designed around you — your pace, your goals, and your growth. Each session includes grooming, saddling, riding, and cool-down care, because horsemanship is about the whole experience. We believe riding is more than a hobby — it's a path to becoming confident, strong, and independent, not just as a rider, but as a person.
Semi-Private Lesson
Our semi-private lessons are perfect for siblings, best friends, or any two riders who want to share the experience together. Just like our private lessons, each session focuses on growth, confidence, and helping every rider feel truly at home in the saddle. Learning alongside a friend makes every milestone even sweeter.
Youth Riding
Our 30-minute youth lessons are designed for our youngest riders — typically between 2 and 5 — just beginning their horse journey. Each session includes grooming, saddling, riding, and cool-down care at a pace that's just right for them. Every child is different, and some are ready for a full hour — we're happy to work with what fits best. Starting young means a lifetime of confidence and adventure ahead.
On-Your-Own-Horse Lessons
Why haul out when the expertise can come to you? We offer private, semi-private, and group lessons at your facility, on your own horses — so riders learn in the environment they know best and training stays consistent with each horse's individual needs. Travel is the only added cost. The rest is all included.
Weekly Group Lessons
These hour long lessons are perfect for current clients, clients who ride at other barns, or people who are trying to figure out whether or not horses are their passion. These lessons are not riding but deal with horse care. Participants will learn things such as groundwork with horses, what to do in a horse emergency, how to trailer a horse, horse behavior, feeding horses, etc. We firmly believe that being a reader requires a holistic view of the horse as a partner and fellow athlete.
Gift Certificates
Give the gift of the ride. Whether it's a birthday, holiday, or just-because moment, a gift certificate for riding lessons is the kind of present that truly stands out. Choose any amount, and we'll create a beautifully designed certificate personalized for the occasion — all set to unwrap and unforgettable from the first lesson on.
