This is not just a pony camp.
This is for young horse lovers who truly want to grow.

Our June Pony Camp is designed for children and teens who:

* Have been riding for awhile and want to go deeper
* Own a horse at home but need more guidance and motivation
* Want to become true horsemen, not just riders
* Love horses and want to understand how they think, move, learn, and communicate
* Need confidence, direction, and purpose around horses
* Want to build real skills, feel, timing, and connection

This special 3-day camp introduces students to our developing 12 Pillars Horsemanship Program, helping riders build a strong foundation in:
🐴 Horsemanship & horse psychology
🐴 Groundwork & relationship building
🐴 Riding skills & balance
🐴 Horse care & equine knowledge
🐴 Emotional regulation & confidence
🐴 Understanding horse movement and body language
🐴 Communication, leadership, and feel
🐴 Liberty, play, and connection

Students will work toward their first RED Rosette Level within the program.

This camp is especially good for:
✨ Kids who are “stuck” in their riding
✨ Horse-crazy kids wanting more depth
✨ Families with horses at home
✨ Children needing encouragement and motivation
✨ Riders wanting a healthier partnership with horses
✨ Students interested in natural and classical horsemanship

Camp also includes:
