Testimonials

I'm blessed to be a part of this community. My daughter has been riding with Kim for a little over a year. Her love, passion, and knowledge for horses has surpassed any expectations i ever had...

John K.

I've loved my time at ARL! I initially reached out to Kim because I'm an adult that really wanted to take lessons my whole life, but never had the opportunity until now. I've thoroughly enjoyed her approach to horsemanship and I really feel like my comfort level around horses

Chelsea B.

My son and I have the best time riding here for years. It's the perfect place for families to learn and to have fun. Kim and Troy are the best and really want everyone learn and have fun. They also, employ local kids and kids looking to find their path even if it doesn't end up being horses

Jorden G.

Kim and her team are amazing! My daughter has been taking lessons for nearly a year and LOVES it! The lessons are about so much more than riding a horse.

Ann B

Kim is a great riding Instructor. Not only does she teach both our daughters how to ride [Western or English], but she makes sure they learn how to groom, put on the tack and saddle before getting on the horse. I highly recommend Aloha Riding Lessons.
