LESSONS

Our lesson program is exciting and rewarding for riders young and old, thanks to our beautiful facilities and dedicated instructors.

HUNT SEAT PROGRAM

Eden Farms is centrally located to all that the North and South Carolina equestrian community has to offer.  Within an hour’s drive of major show facilities and three area foxhunts, the hunt seat program at Eden is tailored to each rider’s particular goals.  Beginning riders of all ages are carefully instructed in the basics of flatwork and jumping and are given the opportunity to progress through private and group lessons at a pace that is appropriate to their skills.  Lessons are fun, challenging and structured around a solid foundation in hunt seat riding. 

Advanced riders new to Eden will welcome the casual yet structured environment, which is a welcome change from demanding show facilities.  Opportunities abound and each rider is treated as an individual.  A covered jumping arena, outside arena and miles of trails add variety to weekly sessions and ensure lessons go on despite the weather. 

Private and group lessons can be scheduled throughout the day and evening.  The lesson program is for students of all ages from elementary lead-line and beginning adult riders on our school horses to horse owners who are looking for a new home.  We encourage you to visit our facility, watch a lesson and see the difference for yourself.   

Whether your goals are competition or riding for pleasure Eden lessons are focused on safety, education and correct hunt seat riding.  Our horses are our best teachers and the view from the arena will take your breath away.
