What can NSEC offer you?

Column

Public Riding Lessons

From September to June NSEC offers weekly English Discipline Private, Semi-Private and Group lessons. Starting at 8 years old, lessons are 45 minutes long and are taught by one of our experienced coaches. Students only require a boot with a defined heel and a certifed riding helmet we provide everything else! For more information on our rates and program commitment policies, please visit our Lesson page.

Summer Camps

During the summer months of July and August, NSEC offers week-long, half-day summer camps at various levels for children ages 7 and up. Whether riders have never ridden before or have been taking lessons regularly, we have camps suited for all levels of experience. Registration for summer camps opens every April. Level descriptions and registration forms can be found on our Summer Camp page.

Play Dates

A unique experience for children who are too young to enter our lesson program but are already in love with horses. Play Dates can be set up for children starting at 4 years old. Participants get to help groom, tack up and get to take a 5 min hand led ride on their horse in our ring all under the watchful supervision of one of our trained instructors. Information on how to set up a Play Date can be found on our Play Date Page.

Hunter, Jumper & Dressage Programs

Specialized Hunter, Jumper or Dressage training programs are available to those riders who own a horse or lease a horse at NSEC.
