UNITED STATES PONY CLUB

The Stables is proud to announce that they have been recognized as a United States Pony Club Riding Center.


The Stables Equestrian Center
6489 51st Street N.E.
Rochester, MN 55906 507.261.7393
Lessons
LESSONS WITH THE STABLES EQUESTRIAN CENTER STAFF
Lessons at The Stables Equestrian Center focus on developing good horsemanship skills as well as effective riding skills and balance in alignment with the United States Pony Club model.

We specialize in youth riders from beginner to intermediate.

Lesssons will be managed by owner/director Eliese Klennert-Nelson who is a CHA certified riding instructor and conducted by quality staff of The Stables Equestrian Center.
How Much Will It Cost?
New Students
$125 per month (includes 4 group lessons and 1 monthly unmounted meeting).

Intermediate/Advanced Students
$200 per month which includes 7 group lessons a month (2 jumping lessons, 4 lessons on the flat and 1 monthly unmounted meeting).

Please note that the minimum age for the lesson program is 7. We are able to arrange half hour lead line rides for 5 & 6 year olds, but they will not be able to participate in the lesson program until their seventh birthday. Riding requires a high-degree of coordination, balance, and concentration--young children often lack the body control needed to properly cue the horse.
