Canyon Trail Horseback Riding

Take in sunset riding through Malibu Canyon

Join in on an evening built around contact and attuning yourself with the horse, and with the landscape.
We begin on the ground, understanding closeness with a horse and learning horsemanship. Horses read the body with remarkable accuracy; they meet what is congruent. You'll learn how to communicate and meet horses through what is felt. As the light begins to soften, you'll swing into saddle and ride out on the trails of the Malibu canyons.
