Dream Acres Instruction Program, is a fun yet challenging riding experience offered to children ages four to adult, Beginner Rider to Experienced Rider. With three wonderful instructors we are able to offer a variety of programs fit to every level of rider.

Instructor, Angie Morin has taken many riders from first time lessons, and prepared them for successful competition at the National Level including National Championship. Lessons with Angie are available to Riders with prior experience that want to pursue Competitive Dressage at an Upper Level.

Instructor, Brandi Raymond has been a long time student of Angie, and keeps fun and safety as first priority in lessons whether first time riders, or riders preparing for competition. Lessons with Brandi Raymond are available for first time riders, and riders who want to pursue local or lower level competition.

Instructor, Kasey Spear has been a long time student of Angie. She also keeps fun and safety as first priority in lessons whether first time riders, or pleasure riders. Lessons with Kasey Spear are available for first time riders, pleasure riders, and riders who want to pursue local or lower level competition.

Patience, Friendship, Professionalism

Each instructor brings patience, friendship, and professionalism to riding. Our lesson programs are educational, and creative, but challenging, with a strong emphasis on safety and correct training. Head Instructor, and Founder of DAEC, Angie Morin, supervises all lesson activities, schedules, programs. Let Dream Acres become your home away from home, like it has already for so many of our clients!

A horse for every rider!

For those riders that do not have their own horse, Instructor, Angie Morin, has selected a tremendous team of Horses for our Riding Lesson Program. A cooperative, well trained mount, along with a knowledgeable Instructor provide the basis needed for optimal learning and success. We have a horse just right for each rider, in size, temperament and level of training. These horses make learning fun & safe!

Riding Lessons - Your Horse or Ours

Riding Lessons are offered seven days a week, Monday through Sunday. We offer Private, Semi-Private, and Group Lessons. We also offer many horse-related activities every month open to all of our clients. These activities range from Group Fun Lessons, to Beach Rides, Summer Camps, Gitty ^ Club, Hoof ^ Club, and much more. Our goal is to teach each rider how to ride and care for a horse!

Lesson Prices & Payment Policies

We require pre-payment for one calendar month of lessons. New students are permitted 2 lessons to evaluate our program before calendar month pre-payment. We require 24 hours notice for cancellation, or lesson will be forfeited. All reschedules must be taken within the same calendar month.

* Tack up & down time is included in the lessons on our school horses during the beginning stages of riding. We feel this is a very important skill all of our students need to learn. Once a rider is proficient in this skill the rider will be permitted to tack up and down before & after lessons*

Horse Shows and Clinics

Dream Acres Students regularly attend horse shows and clinics throughout New England. If interested in competing, Instructor, Angie Morin can help you and your horse prepare for these horse shows. For those of you not owning your own horse; Dream Acres hosts a series of low-key shows geared towards our students interested in competing on our school mounts. Dream Acres also attends local shows with our school horses! All showing is optional.
