Instruction at Woodsong

 
 
 
Woodsong Farm has been training horses and riders since 1967. Throughout the years, we have had the pleasure of working with riders with a wide variety of goals and aspirations. Some simply love the animals and the joy they bring, while others enjoy the challenge of competing at the local and national level. Whatever a rider’s level or desire, we are pleased to be able to continue to offer a program to suit each individual’s needs and wishes.
 
Woodsong Farm offers year-round instruction for hunters, equitation, and dressage for all ages and levels. We start children at five years of age and teach all ages, including adults. Whether you desire to compete at the top levels, simply want to learn enough to feel confident on vacation at a dude ranch, or anywhere in between, we can help you reach your goals. All beginners are started in half-hour private lessons. The one-on-one instruction afforded in the private lesson is not only safer for the student, but also assures that the student can progress at his or her own speed. A one hour semi-private lesson is an option for our more advanced riders currently training with us.
 

As required by the state of Massachusetts, each of Woodsongs' instructors and trainers is licensed by the Commonwealth. Important to the education of the rider, our instructors have an extensive background of training and competitive experience. Our riders have the opportunity to work with more than one instructor. To keep continuity in our riders’ training, all of our instructors teach with the same basic philosophy. However, sometimes one instructor will phrase something slightly different than another instructor, enabling that all important concept to "click" for the rider.

All riders are required to wear riding boots, or a shoe with a heel, and a hunt cap with a safety harness whenever mounted on the horse. Woodsong has hunt caps available for new students to borrow for their first couple of lessons if they are unsure of making a commitment to a new sport. All lessons require advanced scheduling and appointments can be made by calling Woodsong Farm at 508-896-5800.

During the summer months, in addition to our year-round instruction and training, we offer two separate horsemanship programs for children of all ages. Our Pony Kids program is designed as an introductory program for inexperienced riders, or as a continuing program for young riders. The Horsemasters program is designed for the experienced rider who is committed to improving his or her skills.
