Lesson program
Windmill Stables hosts opportunities for students to master the disciplines of a variety of English riding styles including Hunter/Jumper, Dressage, and Eventing. Our lesson program develops the foundation of a complete rider by learning whole horsemanship including riding, groundwork, and horse care. We educate our students on the importance of health, connections, relationships, & respect of the horse. Windmill students have the opportunity to attend schooling shows on the NTHJA & DHJSA circuits.
