The highly qualified, experienced staff of Hidden Creek Equestrian Center are dedicated to providing excellent equine care and management, individual training programmes, and professional, certified instruction for students of all ages and abilities.

Boarding - Full care board includes all care, feeding, watering, cleaning, turn-out, blanketing, secure tack storage, supplements (owner provides), and year-round use of all the facilities. We feed only premium hay and grain and customise feeding programmes according to your horses' requirements.  Boarding rates start at $215/mo.

Lessons - We welcome students of all ages and abilities, and we have school horses suitable for most levels of rider.  Our lesson topics include handling the horse on the ground, grooming, tacking up, warming up and cooling off, and basic care of the horse, as well as riding techniques to develop a solid seat and the ability to correctly communicate with the horse.  Groundwork and lunge lessons also available, on request.

Training  - Our training focus is on dressage; a classical training system  developing the horses ability, both physically and mentally, without  stress and resistance, and we welcome horses of all breeds into our programme.  We firmly believe that dressage is the correct system to train all horses, regardless of what style of saddle is used.  Groundwork is also an important part of our training programme, and the groundwork techniques we use are instrumental in developing our relationship with the horse.  "The purpose of such training should be to allow the horse to reach his full potential with his full and willing cooperation and without  pushing him beyond his mental and physical abilities."  Manolo Mendez
