WCES Riding Center

Western Riding, Horsemanship Workshops, After-School Barn Club, and more!

We believe a barn should be a place to grow. This is a place to build confidence, find peace in nature, and foster a genuine connection with yourself and others.

Here, horses become the teachers. We believe the greatest lessons aren't just learned in the saddle—they're discovered within.

“There is much we can learn from a friend who happens to be a horse.”

— Aleksandra Layland
