Why Ride?

It’s tough out there. Riding helps you thrive in today’s world.

Riding a horse develops strength, balance, coordination, flexibility, and endurance. It is fantastic for your physical health.

To work with a horse, you must build a bond with him. You must observe and listen to him, communicate well, and earn his trust. Just like with people.

Horses need you to be fully present and grounded in the real world. They boost your mindfulness, which reduces anxiety and depression.

Riding delivers something much too rare today: a thrilling, organic experience in the great outdoors. There are no phones, no tablets, no screens anywhere.

Learning to command a mighty, majestic animal builds self-confidence and self-worth. This prevents so many issues in life before they even start. It translates to success in school and at work.

A horse gives you three important missions: to strengthen yourself so you can lead him well; to train him so he can perform well; and to care for him so he can be physically and mentally well.

A Different Kind of Barn

Our culture is warm, welcoming, and uplifting. We’re serious about horses, but we have fun here, too. We find this combination rare in the horse world.

And all this on 118 acres of gorgeous Western Pennsylvania rolling hills. Come and see for yourself!

An Extended Family

We get to know everyone who comes in and out of the barn, and we champion them all. Our riding students and families cheer for and support one another.

A Sanctuary from the World

At Horse ’N Soul, you’ll find natural beauty, fresh air, tranquility, and the total acceptance that a horse offers. Our barn is a respite from the stress of everyday life.

A Tender Stable

We love and respect horses as the powerful helpers and sensitive healers they’ve always been. We give personal attention to each one in our care.  

A Place for Growth

Building equestrian skills means building so many virtues and life skills too. At Horse ’N Soul you’ll practice patience, gentleness, respect, communication, and leadership.

Time to Take the Reins.

Riding is one of the most exciting and worthwhile journeys you or your children will ever take. And you can get started right now.
