★★★★★Tye BrattonMy niece has been riding with them for a few years. They teach children and adults 5 and over. They offer small group lessons as well as private 1:1 lessons. Check out their website for introductory lessons. They teach all levels of riders, from horse handling to show jumping. They also have horse boarding and combined lessons/boarding and leasing available. There is a nice shaded seating area for parents to watch.
★★★★★Carl “SoCalRoadDog” aka PotatoheadI want to say bad things so my family can have the place to our self. But I can not. Was one of the funniest most memorable hours ever !!!
★★★★★joel lopezGreat place, trainer does a great job working with my daughter. This is the place to go if you are interesting in taking horse lessons. Great with kids.
★★★★★John McFarlandThe experience at Kern Equestrian Academy has been exemplary. As patrons for about 2 years, my child’s confidence in riding and general horsemanship has soared which has built confidence across all disciplines. Nicolas Rossi delivers a perfect blend of clear instruction, mixed with humor, that engages my child. I couldn’t imagine my child riding anywhere else.
★★★★★Laura AfifiMy 10 year old has been riding for more than 2 years with KEA. She absolutely loves her time there and we love all the nice folks who are out there for lessons as well. Nicholas is a great instructor who has a great rapport with kids. It’s a great way to keep you or your child active and off a screen. In addition to riding, we have learned all about caring for horses. Right now my daughter’s dream is to be a veterinarian to help keep animals healthy and their people who love them happy.
