Columbia Horse Center is a lesson facility that provides an experience not matched in the area. We offer so much more then the traditional barn to our students. We have something for the beginner to the advanced rider as well as everything in between. Once joining our lesson program, our students find many ways to get involved and learn the many fascists of horsemanship.
Lessons
CHC offers group, semi-private, and private lessons 7 days a week. Adults and children are separated into different groups, there are Pony Pal lessons for ages 5-7, and we have group lessons during the weekdays for the Home School. There are a variety of Instructors that are trained to teach the very beginner to the experienced.

Equi-Lease
Equi-Lease offers people to ride when they want without having a lesson. It's a unique program for riders that are not yet ready to own a horse, but still want to feel as if they do. The Equi-Lease Program allows our riders to learn much more about horsemanship aspects as well as providing a huge social calendar for the members to participate in.
