Brookson Riding Academy

Show Team

Our students have the opportunity to compete at different levels of competitions, ranging from local (Bronze) to provincial (Silver) and national (Gold). Brookson Farm provides a platform for riders to progress from short stirrup to upper-level jumpers.

Riding Lessons

We offer riding lessons for all skill levels and ages 6 and up. Our curriculum includes a balance of dressage and jumping training to ensure our riders are properly and safely developed for both pleasure riding and competition.

Adult Sessions

We offer lessons for adults of all levels, from beginners checking off riding from their bucket list to those looking to advance their skills. Everyone is welcome!

Tiny Riders

Our Tiny Riders program offers an introduction to ponies and horsemanship for children between the ages of 3 and 5. We require a parent or supervisor to be present during the session and actively participate in the program.

Lesson Information

We require all new riders to start with a 45-minute assessment lesson or introductory ride, which costs $100 plus HST per rider. During this lesson, we use Equestrian Canada standards standards to evaluate your riding level and assign it to you in our portal. If you are new to riding, the assessment lesson will provide you with a personalized introduction to get you started.

After the assessment, you can purchase lesson packages and book your lessons at your convenience through our live schedule. We offer different options for the number of riders and lesson times, some of which may be dependent on your riding level. For example, level 0 and 1 riders are limited to semi-private lessons with a maximum of two riders.

There is no commitment required, and small group and semi-private lessons can be interchanged to find the best fit for your needs.
