I have been a client at On Course Riding Academy for 2 years. I bought “Amber Moon” from Katie, which was bred and born five years ago at her facility. The main reason I chose this place is that being a veterinary neurologist, my schedule is very busy, and knowing that my girl is receiving state of the art standard of care at all time is essential to me. Our weekly lessons with Katie are always conducted with the highest level of professionalism. The frequent turn out time, its two inside arenas, and its two outside rings, give this spacious place the best atmosphere for learning, riding, and for my horse happiness.
I have been at On Course since 2000. I’m their oldest boarder. My experience at On Course has been stellar. From the care they give Maggie to the lessons I have taken over the years all has been top notch. The barn and the riding facilities are the best in the area. I trust both Katie and Chris with the well being of my horse. In a few more years my 3 year old will be taking lessons with Katie as her dad did. Did I mention thanks to Kate my horse Maggie was the 2005 Northeast Regional Horse Shows, Suitable to be a Hunter, Grand Champion. When I first came to On Course in the spring of 2006, i was trying to find a stable that would take excellent care of my horse, but wasn't a pushy show barn. I couldn't have found a better place; my horse is treated like a king. That is really important to me, because I can only see him three times a week since I live an hour away. Katie's lessons are amazing, and they are always catered to the individual horse and rider and what their future goals are. No one is criticized or forced to do something they are uncomfortable with, and when things don't go according to plan, why and how to do something the right way is explained. Horse shows are a fun option made extremely convenient and stress-free with Katie's help. She has taken me from barely being able to get over a crossrail under control to jumping gymnastics with 3 foot oxers. I have never regretted moving to this barn. On course is a very safe and friendly environment that any horse would I’ve been at On Course since 2002, when I first began to trailer my horse Echo there for lessons. On Course and Katie were immediately impressive, and soon Echo moved into OCRA, where he was happy and well cared for until his retirement last year. Katie helped us progress from beginner to regular showing and even winning. We topped off Echo’s career with NJ year end awards two years in a row and great successes at some big shows as well. Last year Katie helped me find my wonderful new horse Raider and he lives in the On Course Show Stable barn - he’s really a dream come true for me. Both Raider and I receive the quality training and instruction that we need to continue progressing to the next level. The care and attention given to all the horses, as well as the exacting standards for horse management truly put On Course at the top level of boarding facilities. I never worry about my horse and I know that he is well looked after. Katie has helped me become a much better rider and she ensures that we set and meet our goals, even if on some days our goal is to simply come out unharmed! |
