Schott In The Dark Farms

Oct 2020

Schott in the dark farms is not like any other barn I’ve ever been to and that’s a great thing! No yelling, no reprimanding, no stress, no competition among riders, in fact it feels like family. Diane is hands down the best trainer I’ve ever had. She has an innate way of knowing exactly what you need, when to push you and when to hold back. She understands how to communicate to each individual without getting frustrated and she has the patience of a saint. Whether you’re just learning to ride for the first time or you’re getting back in the saddle after years off or you just want to bring your horse and excel, have no doubt you are in good hands here.

I must say that @Schott in the Dark Farms honestly is the best place to learn how to ride horses. 3 months ago, when I started, I could never imagine that I would be able to stand up while the horse is walking. Today I can do not only that but also have confidence that I can control the horse with my seat and built a strong foundation of knowledge all around the sport. Diane is a fantastic teacher and take her time to explain the reasons behind everything that she teach. You get to groom the horse every class, which makes you connect to the animal on another level. All animals are kept is best shape and conditions. I always feel like home when I go to my classes. Highly recommend! I met some of their young students and was amazing by level of confidence that the kids build with Diane’s help. She also works with kids that have disabilities and they all achieve amazing results. 👍
