Lessons with Keshia

Hi! My name is Keshia (Key-sha) and I’m so glad you’re here! I’ve been riding at C&C Farm for two years, and in that time I’ve gotten to know all of our horses—and the owners—very well. This farm has truly become a second home to me. I love helping new riders feel confident, comfortable, and excited to learn, whether you’re getting in the saddle for the first time or returning after many years away.

My Goals

• Build your confidence inside and outside the ring.
 You’ll learn to ride with a balanced seat, stay in rhythm with your horse, and be prepared for the unexpected. As you progress, you’ll be able to enjoy our beautiful trails, which include water crossings, hills, trees, and chances to see deer, turkey, and other woodland wildlife.

• Teach you well-rounded horsemanship.
 You’ll learn the tack specific to your horse (saddles, bridles, bits, etc.), how to groom, how to pick hooves, how to safely catch your horse from the pasture, and how to lead confidently.

• Prioritize the health and safety of our horses.
 For the well-being of our horses, we have a 230 lb weight limit. This is non-negotiable.

Lesson Details

  • $80 per person
  • 1-hour lesson (never less)
  • Cash preferred
  • No-shows forfeit any deposit/payment

A typical lesson includes:

  • 10–15 minutes grooming and saddling
  • 20–30 minutes riding
  • The remaining time untacking, grooming, and putting your horse away

Safety

  • Helmets are required for ages 17 and under (we provide helmets for all ages).
  • Parents must remain at the farm during their minor’s lesson.

Who My Lessons Are For

  • Anyone who wants to ride and have fun
  • Adults returning to the saddle after years away
  • Children and young adults, ages 8 and up
  • Children as young as 4 considered case-by-case — younger kids often lose interest within 30 minutes, making the lesson feel more like a pony ride

What to Wear & Bring

  • Water
  • Closed-toe shoes (tennis shoes are okay; boots with a flat heel are best)
  • Shorts/capris are fine for ring rides
  • Long pants required for trail rides due to briars and branches
  • Sunscreen
  • Bug spray

What NOT to Bring

  • A bad attitude — we’re here to have fun!
  • Profanity
  • Smoking or alcohol (for riders and anyone accompanying them)
