Riding Lessons

"I never learned so much so fast, and had so much fun while doing it. Simply put, Linda's the best!" -- Sam Lowery, Texas

We teach you more than to just sit correctly--from your first lesson you are taught about SAFETY AND HOW TO HANDLE A HORSE IN ANY SITUATION. It's about total horsemanship, how horse and human thinking differ and how to use those differences to be in control of your horse at all times. If you want to ride but are nervous of horses, our "Getting to Know Horses" introductory program is for you. Three hours, on two or three days (whichever you prefer) of hands-on ground handling of horses so that the first time you are in the saddle you will be confident that your understanding of horses will make you very comfortable during your first ride.

MONTHLY VIDEOS TO TRACK YOUR PROGRESS AND HELP YOU IMPROVE ARE INCLUDED WITH OUR LESSONS.

Is you riding instructor certified? We are.

"I have been taking riding instruction from Linda for 3 1/2 years. I like that she won't accept excuses or half-hearted efforts. I like it so much that I started my great-niece with lessons 2 1/2 years ago and have seen her develop greater self esteem and become much more self assured not just in riding, but in life itself." -- Annette Petzel

This certification assures you of a professional, safety conscious instructor here in Arizona, where there are no regulations on quality of instruction or attention to safety. Nationally recognized and meaningful, the American Riding Instructors Association Certification Program uses a carefully designed and thought-out system of checks and balances to determine the earning of certification. A team of evaluators, located in various parts of the country, assess all aspects of each candidate's demonstrated knowledge of the discipline he/she wishes to teach, attention to professionalism and safety, and business and personal integrity. Even at Level 1, ARIA certification is hard-earned, which makes it respected and important. Linda Leslie is a Level II ARIA instructor in both English and Western.

As your riding progresses, we offer Board and Training to give you a complete experience. Contact us at 480-515-4495 or twinlperf@hotmail.com for more information.
