Riding Lessons
At Queenswood Stables, we offer classes and clinics in both dressage, jumping and equitation/flat work, designed to support riders of all levels. From beginners to advanced riders, our programs are tailored to meet your needs.
Throughout the year, we organize dressage and jumping schooling shows, and our show team competes in dressage and hunter/jumper events. We also host Equine Canada Rider Level courses and examinations, which include both riding and stable management components.
Additionally, we offer a selection of wonderful horses for lease or purchase. Whether you're a casual rider or a dedicated competitor, we can create a personalized program to help you achieve your goals.
Safety is our top priority. Riders are required to wear boots or shoes with a small heel and protective headgear. Our well-trained horses and regularly inspected equipment ensure a safe and enjoyable riding experience, guided by our skilled and experienced instructors.

“I like the horses and instructors at Queenswood because they help me and make learning fun. Everyone is nice and
always willing to help me. The camps are fun because I get to ride twice a day, do arts and crafts and spend time with friends and horses. The instructors help me reach my goals to become a better rider." - Ila - 12
“I started riding at Queenswood Stables with my two young girls as I wanted a safe pace for them to learn and somewhere I could re-enter the riding world. What I love most about Queenswood is that I can watch extremely talented riders and horses do incredible dressage movements (it truly is like watching a ballet on horseback!) but I am watching my daughters grow as riders in a supportive, non competitive environment. Don't get me wrong, there is definitely a very competitive force at the barn, but I don't feel pressured to join in but do know that I am welcome to participate.
For me, as someone who has been riding for over 20 years, I am continuously challenged and learning. The dressage world is new to me. It's also my chance to 'get away' and return to a place that binds everyone at Queenswood ... A place where everyone loves horses, wants to improve as athletes and is encouraged to learn new things. The Queenswood community, from the international calibre athletes to the first time riders, has been a truly wonderful place for my girls and to grow." - Manjit Kerr-Upal
