Esprit De Corps Riding Academy
Certainly the most personalized horseback ride on Kauai, if not the entire state of Hawaii, is Esprit de Corp Riding Academy in the hills above Kapaa. Dale Rosenfeld, the owner of Esprit de Corp Riding Academy, is certified by the American Riding Instructors Certification Program and has studied with top level competitors and trainers from around the world. To her, working with horses seems to be more of a "calling" than a job. Her love of the animals even extends from riding to "healing touch" of the horses and she specializes in the "Komitor Method" which she will be delighted to share with you if you have an interest. She and her wranglers only take out a maximum of 5 riders in total and miraculously enough will take out as few as two. If you're looking for personalization in your horseback riding experience you can't have a more individual experience than this!---------------- Esprit de Corp Riding Academy provides a varied selection of tour offering which will suit the beginning rider as well as the well trained and advanced riders. Dale's tours run the gamut from an initial one-hour group lesson to a three-hour ride, a four hour ride, a six hour ride and a full day eight hour ride. These rides will take you through some of the most beautiful scenery that the island of Kauai has to offer. Not only are her tours varied in length but also in their choice of emphasis from straight horsemanship and riding to an understanding of the personality of horses themselves to one ride which includes a meditation high up in the mountains which will allow you to more better appreciate the simple and quite beauty of the ancient lava flows.…
