The ManeGait Rider Experience

Generously donated by ManeGait and Tender Smokehouse

3-HOURS | 8 GUESTS | 4 ON HORSEBACK | LUNCH OR DINNER

Saddle up for an unforgettable 3-hour experience at ManeGait! Bring a group of 8 and step into the boots of our riders.

Every guest will have the opportunity to begin with a ride on Samson, ManeGait’s amazing equestrian riding simulator, to get acquainted with the movement of the horse and learn how to cue your horse. Then you’ll head to the barn with our horse leaders, learning to groom and tack your horse just as our riders and volunteers do. From there, you’ll head into the arena with ManeGait’s certified instructors for a guided horseback lesson designed to give you a true taste of therapeutic horsemanship: the connection, the confidence, and the joy our riders feel every time they’re in the saddle. Weather permitting, your riders will head out on a beautiful trail ride.

The group will come back together for a catered lunch or dinner from Tender Smokehouse, served on ManeGait’s new Event Plaza. It’s the perfect way to relax and reflect on your day. Each guest will also take home a gift from the ManeGait store.
