My daughter Isabelle loves riding horses and has had such a wonderful experience learning from Melinda. She feels very comfortable working with Melinda, and you can see her confidence growing. We tried another riding academy, and Isabelle didn't feel comfortable. I would highly recommend MSB Riding Academy to anyone interested in learning to ride horses!

What Families Are Saying
Reviews from Facebook, 100% recommendMy daughter loves Melinda, and looks forward to her lesson every week. Not a single day goes by that she doesn't ask to go ride. Melinda is very patient and explains everything very thoroughly. We couldn't have asked for a better place for riding lessons.
I took refresher lessons as an adult rider after taking a long break from formal lessons to build confidence. Melinda is very kind, patient and helped recommend exercises and tips to help me correct my riding and posture. The convenient close location to downtown Howell was an added bonus.
My daughter has been taking lessons, both private and group, for several months and always has a great experience! She also attended one of the summer day camp sessions and had so much fun. She has gotten the chance to ride many of the lesson horses and they are all wonderful. Melinda is very patient and knowledgeable.
Melinda at MSB Riding Academy is A+ a wonderful teacher. My 7-year-old loves her riding lessons.
