Openings! We have 2 openings at our full care big barn! @

12x12 matted stalls with access to a h/c wash stall. Each stall can have a tack box or locker. You get a saddle and bridle rack that you can keep your saddle and bridle in a temperature controlled tack room. There is a large sink that is great for cleaning tack located in the tack room.
We use local straw to bed our stalls. The stalls are cleaned daily. Fresh water, hay and straw are added into stalls daily.

Homegrown orchard grass hay is offered. We offer a variety of feed such as a Senior active , a ration balancer, a performance feed. Come talk with us about what you want in a feed and about your horse and we can work something out.

We are a family run business. We are the only ones working this barn. We live on the property. We are multigenerational and we love our farm and we want it to be the best that it can be. We have our own horses that live here and they get the same care as our boarders.

We offer different riding options, ride under cover in our 80’x200’ indoor dust free footing arena. Ride out day or night in our 100’x200’ lighted sand arena. Ride outside the ring over our privately owned 200 acres of manicured wooded trails and rolling open fields.

Hay is available to feed as you wish with open communication to us. We store our hay in our big bank barn at our original farm on Rowland rd. We bring over hay as we need it using our roads through the property to the bank barn. We have the ability to store thousands of bales of hay and straw in this barn.

Grain is fed 2 times a day. Horses are turned out daily. We turnout during the day in the winter and out during the night in the summer. We let the weather dictate the switch.

Small group turnout. Mares and geldings divided.

Hay is put out in fields as needed. We care about the health of our pastures and we do not allow them to be eaten to dust.

We have a great location being minutes from i95. In under an hour you can get to Southeast PA and Newark area DE.

We are a peaceful barn, it is quiet here, it is calming here. If that speaks to you reach out and come see if this barn is for you and your horse.

Can you believe summer is almost to the end!?!? WOW it always just flys by. I love fall time, cooler temps, and the trees changing color. Here at LG we have acres of wooded trails privately owned, not just one trail but multiple trails that can just loop you back to the barn. You can ride over the creek and listen to the water trickle by.

We have openings! We have an empty pasture, we can accommodate those with multiple horses needing to go out together. Reach out for more info!

Full care includes, clean out stall daily. Grain twice a day, hay given in the stall and out in the pasture as needed. Daily small group turnout. Summertime turnout is at night, wintertime turnout is during the day. 12hr in /12 hr out.

LG has a temperature controlled tack room for your saddle and bridle. Tack stalls are available for your tack boxes or lockers.

LG has a large 100x200 lighted sand arena and an 80x200 dust free indoor riding arena for you to use. There are jumps set up in the outdoor.

Our hay is homegrown. We know what goes in our hay because we grow and harvest it. We grow orchard grass for hay and also use field grasses for hay. We offer multiple cuts to feed to your horse.

The Biomechanical Problem Sitting on Your Horse🔥

We spend an extraordinary amount of time trying to improve our horses.

More balanced. Better transitions. More engagement. More relaxed. Better behaviour.

Meanwhile, sitting on top of this entire biomechanical improvement project is 50 to 90+ kilograms of human, listing slightly to left, gripping with one thigh and wondering why the horse is crooked.

Awkward.

So here is today's Collectable Advice:

🚩If you want to improve how your horse moves and behaves under saddle, have a look at the body sitting on top of it.😎

Because your horse doesn't just carry your weight.

➡️Your horse has to manage what your body does while it carries you.💥

Riding position isn't really a position

We tend to teach riding position as though someone might burst into the arena with a protractor.

Shoulder. Hip. Heel.

Excellent. Nobody move.

Unfortunately, the horse has.

Horses don't experience our position as a photograph. They experience us as *mass in motion*.🫣

Every stride, the horse is generating, absorbing and transferring forces through its body. Its back moves. Its limbs load and unload. It accelerates, decelerates, bends and changes direction.

And perched on top is you.😬

You with your dodgy left hip, a collapsing ribcage and that might not have done anything resembling cardiovascular exercise since 2017.🫠

The horse must now incorporate you into the movement.

This is riding.

Our job is essentially to manage our own body well enough that the horse doesn't have to manage it for us.❤

That requires:

1️⃣Enough stability to contain our own body.

And:

2️⃣Enough mobility to allow the horse to move underneath us.

When we can't?

If your trunk collapses every stride, the horse accommodates it.

If you consistently dump your weight onto one side, the horse accommodates that.

If an old injury means one hip doesn't move properly, the horse feels it.

And if you brace every available muscle in an attempt to “sit deep”, congratulations.

You have transformed yourself into a 70 kg backpack containing several bricks.

The horse still has to carry it.😕

And horses respond.

They may shorten their stride, rush, hollow, drift, fall through a shoulder, struggle with one rein or become tense when you sit....or just become spooky and scared of the world‼️

This doesn't mean *everything is the rider's fault*. Horses come with their own asymmetries, weaknesses, discomfort, training problems and occasionally strong opinions about wheelie bins.

But horse and rider are a *moving system*.

Change one body and you change what the other body has to manage.

Which gives us something surprisingly useful to work on😃

Ourselves.

Improve your fitness.

Develop enough muscular integrity to stop various parts of you departing independently at the trot.

Work on mobility.

Manage your injuries.

Notice your asymmetries.

Develop balance, coordination and body awareness.

Not because you need to look fabulous in beige breeches.

Because every improvement in your ability to manage *your own body* potentially changes what your horse has to manage underneath you.

There is also the minor matter of survival - you improve your chances of remaining in the saddle if s**t happens!

Which is generally preferable.

So here is something you can start asking yourself..

*“Am I making myself easy for my horse to carry?”*

Because good riding isn't about arranging yourself beautifully on a horse.

It's about having enough control of your own body that you can move *with* another one.

And before we spend another six months trying to straighten the horse, perhaps we should take a quick look at the slightly asymmetrical cripple primate sitting on top.🤪

Collectable Advice 271/365.

Please SHARE if you made it to the end of this without being offended 😆

Leak is fixed, water is on as normal, Friday, Aug 14, 2 pm.

Can I have your attention, current boarders, please! The barn tack room has a very bad water leak that we have called the plumber for and they can’t come out until Friday. The water is shut off to the barn to prevent flooding in the tack room. The water can be turned back on as needed, but will be shut off overnight starting now, 6 pm Wednesday.

Hopefully will get some relief from this oppressive heat we’ve been experiencing.

Whew...it's a hot one! With heat indices expected to reach over 100°, this is the kind of weather that reminds us just how important it is to keep a close eye on our equine friends.

Horses cool themselves by sweating, but when the humidity is high, that process becomes much less effective. On days like these, strenuous exercise should be avoided. If riding is necessary, keep it light, choose the coolest part of the day, provide plenty of fresh water, shade, and frequent breaks, and always watch for signs of heat stress.

Here at Warrior Ranch, Sully, River, and Chevy will be getting a little extra TLC as we keep a close watch on them throughout this heat wave. Their comfort and well-being always come first.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and here's hoping it won't be quite so hot again soon!
