Welcome to Cessna Stables...
Cessna Stables is dedicated to providing quality riding lessons, dressage training, and horse boarding to students. We specialize in the areas of Classical Dressage, Western Dressage, Working Equitation, Vaquero Horsemanship, Balanced-Seat Riding, and recreational riding. At Cessna Stables we keep our program small and focused to the needs of our students and horses - currently only 14 stalls available for boarding/training at our beautiful, 20 acre farm located in southern Medina county, Ohio. We are within 45 mins of Cleveland, Akron, Wooster, and Wadsworth, Ohio.
Riding Lessons with a Classical Focus which prioritizes:
- The development of an effective and secure Balanced Seat - beginner or advanced, trail or show, a rider can only be as confident, effective, and humane as her seat is balanced and controlled.
- Classical Training Principles (Dressage) - development of the riding horse which takes into account it's own biomechanics and inherent need to be taught how to carry a rider in lightness and collection; resulting in increased soundness, longevity, calmness, and beauty
- Horsemanship - methods of training that foster willingness, a calm mind, and understanding between horse and human
- The development of an effective and secure Balanced Seat - beginner or advanced, trail or show, a rider can only be as confident, effective, and humane as her seat is balanced and controlled.

At Cessna Stables all levels of riders are welcome and safe school horses are available for lessons. The majority of our clients are adult women and we are well-versed in addressing the particular needs of the adult student.

Cessna Stable’s advanced students have a wide range of interests and often come to us from a variety of different disciplines including competitive dressage, combined training, competitive trail riders, western riders, and purely recreational riders. Our advanced students have enjoyed competitive success at Recognized, Breed, and Local shows. At Cessna Stables you will find a positive, encouraging, social group of primarily adult riders. We are not tolerant of barn drama.
Cessna Stable is located in Lodi (8 miles south of Medina), on 21 beautiful acres. Facilities include a 60 x 145 indoor arena, 15+ acres of turnout, extra-large stalls, outdoor riding areas, and on-site owners. Turnout is a big priority and horses are turned out in groups daily except for extraordinarily wet weather. Cessna Stables is within 10 minutes of the I71/I76 interchange and the Lodi Outlet Mall.
