Bit By Bit

Typical Riding Lesson Program


  
Did you ever want to feel the power and freedom of the horse?
Do you want to make sure that you receive professional and safe lessons from instructors with experience?

Here is your chance because we also offer riding lessons for people without special needs.

In addition to the Therapeutic and Hippotherapy riding classes, Bit-By-Bit teaches beginner, intermediate, and advanced horseback riding classes for anyone that wants to learn how to ride a horse. Our Typical Riding Lesson Programs are instructed by a highly professional staff of teachers who are there to help you learn.

Our horses are all athletes that train daily to make sure you get a quality experience.  Our instructors are knowledgeable about the human body and it's unique relationship with the horse. Don't trust just anyone, experience the best.

How Do I Start?
For you to participate in our typical riding lesson program, you only need complete our Rider Information Form and Florida Equine Release, then call for an appointment.

NO doctor's signature is required. Contact us today to learn more.
