My husband and I really enjoyed our first lesson. We learned about horse safety, grooming, and tacking. We are at different riding levels and we both feel like we got a lot from our lesson. We appreciated Lorraine's patience in answering all of our questions. We felt very at ease with her relaxed learning style. She knows that we're not going to remember everything the very first time and that makes learning easier.

I don't think I could possibly gush enough about working with Lorainne! A little about me: I'm an adult student. I can be shy and I embarrass pretty easily, which I think can make me a difficult student. I was hesitant about taking horseback riding lessons, mostly because when I tried it as a kid, it was a little traumatizing. I remember the lessons were in a huge group, so I often didn't catch what was going on, and I remember being yelled at a lot (I'm sure it was for my own safety, but I would be so panicked by being yelled at that it was hard for me to learn). Due to the expense of taking lessons, and probably my lack of enthusiasm for them, I stopped going. Fast forward a few (okay, a lot) of years and working one-on-one with Lorainne. In a million years, I didn't think I could feel as comfortable as I do so quickly. She is extremely knowledgeable about horses and riding. She is also incredibly patient and takes great care in explaining everything from the horse's anatomy and how to saddle properly knowing such, to knowing a horse's temperament and how to approach them. She works with me at my pace to make sure I'm both comfortable and safe. I absolutely love riding, and while we're still working it, I do feel a lot more confident than I thought I would! Lorainne is very caring and a true joy to work with. My lessons are by far one of the best parts of my week and they are worth every penny!

I just returned from an incredible wilderness elk hunting trip in Montana. In just a few refresher lessons, Lorraine helped me prep for all the required saddle time on the mountain trails of the Flathead National Forest. Lorraine is a patient and skilled trainer. With her help, my equipment and riding skills placed me head and shoulders above the other hunters in camp. I was even able to help the guides with the newbie riders. This made for an enjoyable time riding on average 4 hours a day. And for the first time I ever rode in the dark... that took some adjustment time. Lorraine's training gave me the confidence to trust my riding skills and my Montana guide as well as the night vision of my surefooted horse Caylib. My plan is to continue lessons with Lorraine...
