05 / Frequently Asked

Straight answers, no saddle soap.

Do I need my own horse?

No. Horses are available for lessons, especially for beginners. If you have your own horse, bring them — Ozzie trains horse and rider together.

How old do you need to be to start?

Ozzie teaches all ages. Younger riders and first-timers typically start with short, supervised sessions focused on safety and comfort in the saddle.

I've never barrel raced — is that OK?

Absolutely. Lessons are tailored to where you are today, whether that's first time on a horse or tuning up a run before a competition.

Can Ozzie come to our barn?

Yes. Ozzie gives clinics to large groups or barns across the tri-state area and beyond. Reach out with your location and the group size you're working with.

What disciplines do you focus on?

Main focus is gymkhana, barrel racing and pole bending, but Ozzie is skilled in most forms of riding and regularly works with general horsemanship students.

How do I know if this is a fit?

Start with a phone call. Ozzie will ask about your experience and goals, and between the two of you, you'll decide what the first session should look like.
