There be Dragons Farm’s schoolmasters are different from typical lesson horses because their heightened level of sensitivity and training allows a rider to feel a properly executed movement when the aids are correctly applied. Whether you are an experienced rider or a complete beginner, we will pair you with the best horse to expand your knowledge, build your confidence, and help you achieve your goals.

Canela
Argentinian QH
Canela is a 2001 Argentinean QH imported as a polo pony and has since changed disciplines. As the in-house school master, Canela knows just how much to push the rider out of their comfort zone in order to teach better them balance, refinement, and clear communication.

Firefly
Pony
Firefly, the in-house unicorn, is an 8 year old pony. In her training, she is beginning to understand suspension and true thoroughness of the body as well as learn what it takes to be a beginner lesson horse. Firefly is fun, very responsive to riders and is able to challenge students to better their balance and coordination.

Raven
Arabian
Raven is known to some as “their little black dress”. Coming beautifully into contact, his Arabian neck is shown off and he begins to carry himself into suspension. Raven is also very patient with more beginner riders, allowing them to feel a bigger trot that has some spring to it.

River
Lusitano
River is Tommy’s upper level personal horse who is working on steps of piaffe and passage. In the arena, River knows her job and is not afraid to express her opinions. Recently, she has begun to play around with liberty work.
