School's out, you're off the clock — it's horse time.
Come to Lune Hollow to discover and nurture your love for horses. We aren't in it for the ribbons or the 'gram, we're doing it for the moments of freedom stolen on the back of a beloved horse, that rush we feel when it finally CLICKS and horse and human are speaking the same language, and the sense of wonder that keeps us learning and growing no matter our age or experience in life. The barn is where you shake off the rest of the world, and enter into horse time.
We offer horsemanship-based lessons for children and adults in English (with an emphasis on classical dressage), Western, and carriage driving. Our belief is that a foundation of solid horsemanship, good riding skills, and a focus on enjoyment both in and out of the arena form the basis for a “horse phase” that lasts a lifetime. From there, the world expands and adventure awaits.
Contact us at [email protected] or 972-658-7537 (text is best!) to schedule your lesson.
Lessons at Lune Hollow are about more than just riding -- our goal is to help everyone build comfort and proficiency around horses both on the ground and in the saddle.
Our focus on horsemanship means we take the time needed to help you connect with your horse -- you'll get to know them like we do by learning to catch, groom, tack up, and care for them before and after the ride. As a result, our lessons are longer than a typical riding lesson at 75-90 minutes for adults and 60-75 minutes for children.

We're also delighted to trade barn chores for lessons or other horse experiences! Please don't hesitate to inquire.
