COMBINED TRAINING
Rocking Horse has a selection of over 100 cross-country fences, from Beginner Novice to Advanced level, set throughout scenic pastures and woodlands. There are three regulation-sized Dressage arenas with a clay and sand-mixed footing. Stadium fences are set up in the 200 x 300 jumping arena, and additionally on a grass field for choice of footing. Dressage and jumping arenas newly resurfaced! 

The cross country course is open for schooling year round except for event preparation and extreme weather conditions. Please call in advance to schedule a time.  Upon arrival, each person will need to sign a release form, show a current coggins for their horse, and pay appropriate fees (see fee schedule). Helmets with a harness are required to school at Rocking Horse. Dogs are welcome but must be leashed.
