As a little girl, I always wanted a horse to ride. I pictured a red pony with a white face in those dreams, but the reality was we didn’t have a place, the money, time, or the knowledge to really pull that dream off, and my parents were well aware of that, even if I wasn’t! Now, as a mom who’s been fortunate enough to marry into a family with western roots to a husband who is an equine surgeon, my kids get to ride and rope often. I am so thankful for that and want to share a handful of barns throughout the OKC metro that offer riding lessons for children and adults alike. Whether you are limited on space to house or you lack the resources to start, lessons are a great place to begin getting comfortable with horses.
