Centered Riding lessons
Putting in action the principles of Centered Riding will bring balance and harmony to your relationship with your horse.  There is so much improvement you can achieve in the quality of your riding. You can magnify the results of your work together.  I can help you apply those principles regardless of which discipline you follow.
Coaching for progress and harmony
I teach beginner through intermediate levels in hunter/jumper, dressage at training level, principles of horsemanship and trail riding. As a Level 1 Centered Riding Instructor, I am happy to help riders apply Centered Riding basics to any discipline. Together we can discover what change is needed to enhance your progress and harmony with your horse.  I teach at Sindorf Equestrian Educational Center www.susiemorganriding.wixsite.com/sindorf near Colony High School in Palmer, AK with Jenny Rousey.
"The ultimate goal of Centered Riding is not to be a discipline unto itself. It must go forward in its purest and least complicated form so it may be integrated into all disciplines of riding."  ~ Sally Swift
Lesson types and fees
I teach primarily private lessons, although I do teach semi private lessons if that is desired.  The fee is the same for either, but the lesson is longer with multiple riders and it is a good opportunity to learn from other riders.  If you have your own horse you are paying for only the instruction.  If you need a lesson horse, there is an additional fee.  If you haul your horse to my location there is an arena fee.  You can see the facility at www.susiemorganriding.wixsite.com/sindorfÂ
If you need me to travel to your location there will be a travel fee depending on the distance required to travel.
Private lesson
Mounted or unmounted lessons are $50 for a 45 minute session.  You will need to set aside 1.5 to 2 hours to include the preparation and clean up routines.
Lesson horse
This depends on which lesson horse you require.
The horse for young beginners is $25 per session.
The more advanced horses are $25 - $35 per session.
Hauling your horse
