Renaissance Equestrian Center

Renaissance Equestrian Center Horse boarding, classical dressage instruction and training. Owned and operated by Dawn Arnold. Indoor and outdoor arenas.

We specialize in helping people become better riders, and improving communication between horse and person. Our riding program is based on using non forceful methods to train horses to work in lightness and self carriage. We pride ourselves in having a non-competitive atmosphere that encourages people at all levels to learn and grow at their own rate. For those needing some help with getting their

horses into a good balance we offer part or full training as a way to educate the horse so that the rider can access better information. Our boarding program insures that horses are kept happy and comfortable in a low stress environment. We feed quality grain and hay, and check horses regularly. Daily turnout is the norm, as much as 24 hours out in good weather. 12 x12 box stalls are cleaned daily.

It's time to start opening up the summer pastures. The horses just love it out there! Now I can give some of the winter paddocks a bit of a break.

I think it is safe to say that spring is finally here. 😊

Here's the latest on Bo, who came here in April with the goal of returning him to being rideable and "serviceably sound". He had a lot of back pain and had done poorly on neuro exams. He was tested and treated for epm. I started with work in hand and balanced lungeing, then light (and careful) riding. He is doing well walk/trot/canter now, and his human is starting to ride him again. What seemed hopeless was not, and he can now be enjoyed as a riding horse again. 😊
