Leadership & Life from the Saddle
🐎 A 4-Week Journey into Confidence, Connection, and Country Life
Hosted at a private ranch in New River, Arizona
🌾 Let the Desert Be the Classroom
Horsemanship Academy is more than just a riding lesson—it’s an unforgettable, hands-on experience that connects kids to the land, to animals, and to themselves. Over the course of 6 weeks, a small group of students will step into ranch life and learn the true art of horsemanship.
They’ll spend time riding and grooming horses, learning how to care for animals like goats and chickens, and experiencing what it really means to live off the land. This is a program where kids don’t just watch—they do. They lead, they learn, they connect.
