They treat their horses, mostly donations and rescues, like kings and queens! They want the horses to have the most fulfilling and healthy life and are SO dedicated!

Their riding programs are unmatched in skill, knowledge, positive learning and encouragement. In addition to all of the different classes (by 10-12 week sessions) for typical riders from age 7 up, they offer a Special Riders Program for exactly that demographic and have classes and competitions for Special Olympics Ohio Equestrian. It is a magical place!

The teachers, the volunteers and the love: all real, sincere and magical.

I've been taking riding lessons here for about a year now, and had the opportunity to ride during your "down" time. I was in a class on Thursday evenings and our instructor was Jana. She was absolutely amazing! She was very thorough on making sure that we, her students, understood the importance of correctly tacking up and taking care of our Horses, and how to do it safely. Her teachings of riding were impeccable! I learned so much from Her in a short amount of time. Thank you Jana for making that class so enjoyable to be in! Hope to be able to ride with you again!

My girls took lessons here and had 2 wonderful instructors. Zan was their beginning instructor and Jana was the instructor for the next level. Jana also told us about a horse camp the girls could attend. She did a fantastic job with the camp and lessons. They absolutely loved it!! Fantastic experience for my girls. They were taught so much about horses and riding!

My daughter Ashley has been taking lessons here for a few years now. The facilities are clean and comfortable. All of the horses are well cared for. However, the best part of lessons this year has been Ashley’s instructor Jana!! I can’t thank Jana enough for working with Ashley!! Jana is a very bright, lively and intelligent teacher. In one short summer Ashley’s riding abilities have improved drastically! Jana is very good at bringing out the best in the kids. She is very good at correcting and encouraging them all at the same time. It’s been so nice to watch Ashley become such a confident rider in such a short period of time. Thanks so much Jana!

My granddaughter is in her 2nd class of riding lessons here. It's been a very positive experience. Especially now she has Jana as her riding instructor. I can't say enough good things about Jana. She's safety minded and teaches the kids all aspects ofsafe horsemanship. She's never boring , at times a little challenging but always explains and clearly verbalizes instructions on the kids level. Hopefully Jana will be here for a long time. She's excellent! They have great horses for lessons.

My two children love taking riding lessons here. I have been so impressed with the high quality of teaching that is offered. Jana builds their confidence and also challenges them to keep becoming better riders. Thank you Jana and WWRC for providing such a great experience!

Kind staff, professional teaching, nice atmosphere, well trained horses...I had a really good experience to learn how to ride and communicate with horses. Especially Jana is a hard-working and diligent teacher. I highly recommend this school.

I used to ride and show horses up until I had my first son. So I am an advanced rider. Then life, kids, carpool, job, etc happens and your hobbies take a back seat, so I signed up for lessons at Winton Woods to do something for myself and try to get back into the swing of things. I really appreciated their laid back manner and approach to my lesson experience. If the barn staff and trainer would have been micro managing me, I would not have liked that at all. Taylor did a great job coaching and encouraging me without being overbearing. I would recommend taking lessons here for sure!! Thank you Winton Woods for letting this soccer mom have some moments of youth and happiness back!!
