______________________________________
Our instructors take great
pride in teaching beginners to ride a
horse in a safe manner. Our
instruction is gentle and keeps the child's
interests in mind. She takes precaution to use a
lead line attached to the horse until the
child is skilled enough to control the horse on their own.

Disclaimer:
Thornberry is all about fun with horses, however, we
want to warn you of the possibility of dangers when
riding a horse, particularly young
children who have not developed strong motor skills. All horses, whether trained or
not,
are unpredictable and can be dangerous. They are not machines and do not always behave how we would like
them to. We feel it is a stable's responsibility to inform you of the
possibility of risk
during activities with horses. Our goal is to bring people and horses
together as safely as possible, therefore we endorse that learning and gaining knowledge
about every aspect of horses should be a major portion of the horse
experience.
