Riding Instructors have their very own magazine!

When I first saw Riding Instructor magazine my heart flipped. A magazine for Me? I love it so much! Riding Instructor is not just about a talented horse or rider, but about those of us who launch those talents, and help those without talent still participate in the lifelong love of riding. It’s about our dear forgiving horses that allow the human body to develop and learn. It’s about making our small businesses work financially and our farms and riding schools work physically.

Riding Instructor is honest and correct. Its articles come from the real world of keeping riders safe and horses happy. I believe that Charlotte Kneeland’s philosophy and influence has helped return dignity to the profession of teaching riding and value to the riding school. Of all the magazines we get, Riding Instructor is the one I would never give up."

Recent features have addressed teaching disabled riders, the wisdom and method of emergency dismounts, and "Beating the 'Round and 'Round Blues: ways to add interest and fun to your lessons." A two-part series, "If I knew then..." gave longtime instructors an opportunity to share their hard-earned wisdom and tips for success with newer members of the profession.
