Our mission at Big House Equestrian Center is to give our riders the skills necessary for a healthy, safe, and rewarding partnership with their horse, no matter the discipline. Results happen when rider and horse communicate as one. We accomplish this through the proven techniques of Centered Riding, a simple way of expressing the classical principles of riding.
When a riding instructor tells you "what" to do, Centered Riding answers "how" to communicate that to your horse. We teach this communication through increased body awareness, inhibiting old patterns and replacing them with a more balanced, free, and coordinated use of self, applied equally to all English and Western riding styles.

Big House Equestrian Center lessons are all individualized and customized for each student's needs. In addition to mounted lessons, Susan is skilled in evaluating a student's "use of self" through un-mounted sessions. These are very helpful for students to learn how to become more aware and balanced prior to getting on the horse.
