Christian Horsemanship Class
Haven’s Horses Christian classes give fresh insight to horsemanship and presents biblical lessons based upon building a relationship with a horse. The Biblical lessons teach children basic principles of living a Christian life. The horsemanship component consists of basic riding, groundwork, drill patterns, cattle herding, and trail rides. Students must be six years old or above to participate. Classes are given on a semester basis. The fall semester runs from August to December and the Spring semester runs from January to the first week of June. We follow the Keller ISD Holiday schedule and do not have classes when school is out for holidays. Classes are weekly and payment is due at the beginning of the month. Most months classes are $100-125, depending on how many classes are in the month. Payment is required whether your child can attend class or not and credit is given in case of weather cancellations. We do offer just one month of lessons if space is available for $30/class, totaling $120 for the month. Classes are offered Monday – Friday. Riders attend the same assigned class once each week.
