"If one induces the horse to assume that carriage which it would adopt of
its own accord when displaying its beauty, then, one directs the horse to
appear joyous and magnificent, proud and remarkable for having been
ridden."
Nittany Equestrian is a small program that specializes in developing a solid foundation of horsemanship, knowledge and compassion for the horse. We do lessons for all ages and abilities in most disciplines. Our program incoporates every aspect of horses and riding from basic care and groundwork up to jumping and dressage. We focus on helping our riders to develop the basics of good seat, hand and leg position as well as learning how to use their independent aids. Our current school horse is a talented gelding with a personable nature that is excellent at letting you know when you've got it right whether it's finding your distance before a fence, learning to post or mastering the art of collection and impulsion!
