JREC Riding School Introduction |
|
|
|
|
The Riding School at James River Equestrian Center offers lessons to those who do not own a horse at our Riding School (this is the first barn on the property). We teach beginner through intermediate lessons. Our Riding School horses are carefully selected. We have ponies and horses that are appropriate (very quiet) for the beginner as well as those who can challenge and accommodate the more advanced rider. In our riding program, each student is developed at his or her own pace. All lessons are taught in groups (beginners in groups or 2 -3). The maximum in a group is 5 riders. This approach allows our students to learn from each other as well as enjoying the social aspect of riding as well. Our staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.

The Boarding Facility at James River Equestrian Center is a boarding and training stable whose main focus is on the hunter show ring. In April of 1996, Vicki Phillips opened the James River Equestrian Center on the historic Keswick plantation. JREC facilities include a twenty-two stall boarding barn, two(2) lighted riding rings, and 75 acres of turnout pasture. It is currently a thriving children's lesson and show barn. Vicki truly enjoys teaching, and taking her students to shows. JREC students are currently very successful at the VHSA Associate level (showing in Capital Horse Show Association competitions). |
