Horsemanship starts
on the ground
At Maple Shade Farm, we believe that true horsemanship isn’t just about what happens in the saddle; it starts on the ground. Before you even mount up, our lessons guide you through the essential skills of groundwork—building trust, understanding equine body language, and establishing a mutual respect with your horse. This foundational approach not only enhances your riding experience but also deepens the bond between you and your horse. Whether you’re a novice eager to learn the ropes or an experienced rider looking to refine your skills, our focus on groundwork ensures that your relationship with your horse is built on a solid, meaningful connection that enriches every moment you spend together.
