Cessna Stables also has a limited number of stalls available for horse boarding at our beautiful, 20 acre farm located in southern Medina county, Ohio. Cessna Stables, LLC is owned and operated by Shannon and Erik Cessna.
Instruction at Cessna Stables is mainly centered around these three subjects:
- Development of an effective and secure, Classical (Balanced) Seat on and off the lunge line
- Gymnastic dressage - development of the riding horse based on equine bio-mechanics leading to
increased soundness, longevity, suppleness, strength, calmness, usefulness, and beauty.
- Vaquero Horsemanship - a method of horse training that fosters willingness, calmness, and
obedience by developing understanding between horse and human through 2-way
communication and respect.
At Cessna Stables beginner and returning riders are welcome and safe school horses are available for lessons. The majority of our clients are adult woman and we are well-versed in addressing the particular needs of the adult student. Cessna Stables places a high priority on providing comprehensive support to the horse owner by providing excellent horse care, quality instruction in all areas of horse husbandry, horse training as needed, horse leasing and expert sales advice. Becoming a 1st time horse owner can be daunting and frustrating, but with the right support and expert advice it can be an extremely rewarding and positive experience instead.
