We offer free riding lessons for Veterans and their families at our Farm in Clermont, FL!

These free riding lessons for Veterans and their families are offered twice weekly:

• Wednesday 5PM – 7PM
• Saturday 10AM – 1PM

Riding lessons are conducted at the Farm in Clermont, FL and include up to 4 participants per class. We ask participants to commit to 12 lessons, or approximately 12 weeks of training. Once you’ve started your 12 lesson/week cycle we will hold a spot on your day of choice. During your commitment excused absences are accepted, but we encourage participants to dedicate to a weekly schedule for greatest results. During your lesson, Veterans will learn about horse care, safety, grooming, tacking, and of course, horseback riding. All you need to start are a pair of boots with a heel and long pants! Michael’s Foundation provides everything else.

While our Veteran Riding Lessons are available to Veterans and their families, we have a minimum age of 12 years old for participants.

Please contact Matt Titus, Director of Veteran Engagement, to get on the waiting list or to discuss availability.
