All riding disciplines are approached through dressage principles.  The basic goal of dressage is a balanced, supple, forward and cooperative horse.  These are desirable traits in any riding endeavor be it strictly recreational or serious competition.  At our facility, located on  91 rolling acres in Randolph, Minnesota we pursue several riding disciplines, including dressage, hunter under saddle and jumping, and can tailor a lesson, training, fitting and boarding program to your individual horse's needs.  For the equestrian interested in pursuing breeding, our operation is set up to assist you in breeding, foaling out and foal training, as well as eventual starting and finishing of your prospect. 

We are very fortunate to have on site a phenomenal dressage trainer and instructor, Mindy Price, who is available for lessons and also for training of competitive dressage horses.  Please see our show results pages for our list of accomplishments.  If you are looking to compete locally, regionally or nationally Mindy or one of her assistant trainers can tailor a program for you and your animal.  In addition, we now have a wonderful jumping instructor who is tailored towards the youth/amateur rider and to complete our program, a young trainer who is fabulous at beginner riding lessons and a trainer who is well versed in starting all young horses as well as doing extensive leg work and lay up work of racehorses.

Please contact us for rates and/or any other questions you might have.  From all of us at Blackshire, thank you for your interest in our website and our program and if we may be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us.

We look forward to working with you.
