Learn to Ride

Horseback riding is fun and inspires a unique love of horses in many riders. At GKM Equestrian in Leeds, Alabama, we offer riding lessons to both children and adults of any skill level. Join us today and learn more about this fun, exhilarating hobby from our experienced, passionate instructors.

Lessons for All Ages

Our riding lessons are great for all ages, and for skill levels from beginner to advanced. We start both our child and adult students off with a traditional, balanced seat. This approach allows you to choose any riding discipline you like. Most of the kids we teach are schooling lower-level dressage and beginning a foundation for jumping. Our teaching approach follows the philosophy that you must walk properly before you trot, trot before you canter, and ride all three gates controlled and well before you learn to jump.

Pricing

Individual lessons for $85 for 45 minutes or $65 for 30 minutes. Regular lessons are billed at the beginning of the month, and we also offer private lessons, or group lessons. Group lessons never contain more than five children. Riding lessons are included when you lease a horse from our stables.
