Lessons

Under the direction of owner and Head Instructor, Holly Rebello, lessons at Hidden Brook Stables are tailored to the individual rider’s capabilities and goals. We provide a safe, family friendly environment on quality school horses and ponies.  Hidden Brook Stables offers equitation, hunter and jumper lessons to riders of all ages and levels of experience.  In addition to actual lesson time, students assist in grooming, tacking up, and learning basic horse care. Good horsemanship comes from confident and conscientious horse handling and is a must at Hidden Brook.

Riders also have the opportunity to join our IEA Teams, show at the many rated shows we attend each month, participate in schooling shows or just enjoy a weekly riding lesson.  We offer both private and group lessons, conducted in our indoor or outdoor arenas.  We want to share our love of riding with everyone, from the beginner to the experienced rider. Everyone is welcome, from those who show to those who ride for pleasure. You’ll find what you’re looking for at Hidden Brook Stables!
