Your Horse's Home Away From Home

Horses are housed in spacious areas with multiple housing options depending on availability with heavy-duty pipe fencing and individual heated automatic waterers, providing comfort and protection in every season. Depending on each horse's individual needs, customized care options—including feeding programs, turnout, blanketing, and veterinary or farrier coordination—are available.
The facility also offers a large indoor arena, expansive outdoor arena, round pen, and access to beautiful riding trails, creating an ideal environment for developing confident, well-rounded horses. With owners living on-site and knowledgeable staff monitoring horses throughout the day, you can have confidence knowing your horse is receiving attentive, professional care while in training.
Why Choose Flying Lyons?
At Flying Lyons LLC, training is about more than teaching a horse a skill or helping a rider check off a goal—it is about building a partnership. Grace believes the foundation of successful horsemanship comes from trust, communication, and understanding between horse and rider. Every horse and rider combination is unique, which is why each program is tailored to meet individual needs, challenges, and goals.
Rather than focusing on quick fixes, Flying Lyons takes a thoughtful approach by addressing the “why” behind behaviors and helping riders develop the knowledge and confidence to become better partners for their horses. Through a combination of groundwork, practical horsemanship, and personalized instruction, clients gain the tools to continue progressing long after their time in training or lessons.
What sets Flying Lyons apart is the focus on creating confident, capable horsemen and horsewomen—not just teaching riders what to do, but helping them understand how to communicate effectively with their horse. The result is a stronger foundation, a deeper connection, and a partnership built to last.
-
Every successful horse begins with a solid foundation. Training focuses on developing respectful ground manners, responsiveness, and clear communication before progressing under saddle. Horses are worked both in the arena and in real-world environments to build confidence, consistency, and reliability. A strong foundation creates a willing, versatile partner prepared to succeed wherever the trail—or arena—takes you.
-
A confident horse and rider can accomplish anything. Build your confidence and strengthen your partnership by learning alongside your horse every step of the way. Lessons are designed to help you develop the skills to communicate more effectively while reinforcing your horse's training. By growing together, you'll get the most value from your investment and create a stronger, more successful partnership both in and out of the saddle.
-
Training is more than teaching new skills—it's about creating lasting habits. Consistency helps your horse build confidence, develop good responses, and continue progressing with each ride. Investing in regular training today creates a safer, more reliable partner for years to come.
