About
Amor Ranch teaches english, jumping, western and Cowboy Dressage. Students learn to halter the horse, leading, ground work, how to tie up a horse, grooming, saddling, bridling and of course riding. Jumping, Cowboy Dressage and trail riding. Our barn starts students a bit differently than most riding lesson barns. We prefer to start children on a bareback pad. That way they learn how to balance correctly and learn to feel the horse. Some children will start on a saddle. We do what is best for each student. Adults start on a saddle and can choose to try a bareback pad if they feel confident enough. Most do. Balance and movement with the horse is what riding is all about and riders can feel that easier when riding on a bareback pad. Students making progress and accomplishing their goals is what it is all about. That goal made, can put me on a high like nothing else. I get so excited for my students when they accomplish something with a horse that was so hard for them for so long. Slow and steady wins the race! Students can choose to compete if they want to. Western or english. Students can choose to learn to jump if they like. The first lesson is always a private unless 2 or 3 start together. We want to get to know you one on one. Some students need private lessons for a while before they ride with a group of 2 or 3 riders. Amor Ranch provides what is best for each students learning ability. Lets start your horsemanship journey together.

Nancy is amazing. She not only teaches you how to ride; she also teaches you about horse nature, behaviors, grooming, tact set up and breakdown. I have taken lessons in the past and nothing compares to what I've learned at Amor Ranch. I have a disability and Nancy has been more than accommodating and understanding with me. You feel "at home" there which is a great feeling for learning. It's the highlight of my week or month depending on when I can go to my lesson. I've ridden on three of her horses: Neco, Suprise, and my favorite... Cadbury. They are all gentle and friendly and patient with me. If you're looking to learn or refresh I highly recommend Amor Ranch.

It has been a wonderful experience for my daughter to learn riding horses from Mrs. Nancy. I have been very impressed with her work, and my daughter loves going for her lessons. I also appreciate that she is teaching everything about the horses to my daughter; the tools for cleaning and caring for horses, saddling, riding, and safety. As a parent, I could not ask for anything else!! I would highly recommend her to others wanting to learn how to ride and take care of horses.

Ms. Nancy is a fantastic instructor! Our daughter was 10yo when she began lessons in Oct 2013, she is now 11yo and loves riding lessons with Ms. Nancy. Nancy has increased our daughter's confidence in the saddle and out. Nancy is a very skilled horseman and patient instructor. I would recommend any equine services Nancy has to offer!

My daughter took lessons with Nancy when she was 11 years old and it was a wonderful experience. Nancy is very experienced and extremely patient with her students. Her horses are very versatile in riding English or Western. They are also very safe for beginning riders. I have since started taking lessons myself after not riding for over 20 years and I could not be happier!
