WIL HOWE RANCH

Private Coaching Instruction

at Wil Howe Ranch or your own facility

 

 Beverly offers private training instruction lessons that can be customized for your personal needs. These can be arranged by appointment in between our regularly-scheduled school classes, and can be two-to ten-day events for just you, your family, or a select group. Private Instruction sessions are ideal for new WHR gelding clients to learn how to correctly handle, ride, and maintain their new horse.

We enjoy this informal format, as we can get down to the "nitty gritty" of each of your needs and spend as much time as required to address them. Focusing on particular areas gives you the opportunity to reach your personal goals, building from one skill to the next with your horse.
