I will be moving to Round Hill in about a month and need to find somewhere for my 7 yr old to start lessons. I'll travel anywhere within 20 minutes.

She has been riding just for about 6 months, she can do a small group but I'd rather have her do a semi private or maybe 3 riders in the lesson max. Ideally, I want somewhere that has a fair amount of kids, safe ponies and most importantly solid, safe instruction.

Any suggestions would be welcome!

Clairvaux in Leesburg would be ideal. Check out their website at cveq.com. Lots of kids, safe lesson ponies and terrific instructors.

There's Marty Bigley (sp?) very near where you'll be. I don't have contact info though. I've heard good things but don't know her at all.

Katie Petronelli seems to do a FANTASTIC job with the kids. They attend our horse show series and her students always ride very well and seem to always have tons of fun (which is important with children...and adults for that matter!).
