* HELMETS ARE REQUIRED FOR ALL RIDERS IN LESSONS *

"At its finest, rider and horse are joined not by tack, but by trust. Each is totally reliant upon the other. Each is the selfless guardian of the other's very well-being." Author Unknown

We can customize any training or lesson package to fit your needs and budget.  Do you just want to take an occasional lesson?  Or maybe you want to take advantage of our full training and show program.  Do you have a horse for sale?  We can help you evaluate, market, and prepare your horse for sale and do our best to find the most appropriate match.

School horses are available for use in private or semi-private lessons at The Back Forte in Enumclaw.  They range from ponies safe for the beginner child to advanced horses trained in Dressage and Hunter/Jumpers.  Contact for more information and pricing concerning school horses.

Judging services are also available at schooling Dressage shows, schooling combined training events, Pony Club rallies, and 4-H Dressage shows, and NOW Western Dressage schooling shows. Allison strives to make useful comments that address the root of the problem, and tries to be encouraging and generous without being unrealistic. Allison graduated in 2011 from the USDF "L" judging program "with distinction."
