Philosophy:
At Galloway Farms we want to fully educate our students on HORSEMANSHIP, not just how to ride. Our program consists of overall horse education including: safety, grooming, tacking, leading, lunging & groundwork, bathing, tack care, horse health, as well as learning to ride in the discipline of your choice. The FIRST lesson will be almost (and sometimes entirely) from the ground. Our program is designed to educate people on horse ownership, as this is so often our future goal. A full education to horse ownership is the first step to help prevent the vast number of neglected and unwanted horses in our country.

Philosophy:
"My desire as a trainer and instructor is to bring horse and rider to a place of true harmony through careful development of the correct basics and through understanding of the horse both physically and psychologically."
