We offer a supportive, educational environment for our clients and their equine partners.

Coaching Services

Our Goal

At Edenview, your goals are our goals. We have adopted a flexible coaching program that adapts to meet the individual needs of each driver. Whether you're looking to experience driving for the first time, or need that extra polish on your performance to get you to the top, Edenview can help! Our program focuses on equitation and biomechanics of both horse and driver, ensuring a working partnership that is mutually beneficial.

Our COmmitment

As funny as it may sound, we actually teach you how to drive! Unlike others, Edenview does not offer “group” lessons - in the world of equestrianism, one size does not fit all! A one-on-one lesson allows drivers to learn in a supportive, relaxing environment. This type of environment makes for quick progress and more consistent learning. If you are willing to commit to learning, we will commit to bringing out the best driver in you.

Our Philosophy

There is more to riding/driving than simply staying on or with the horse. After experiencing our coaching, we want you to feel like you have not only mastered the art of horsemanship, but that you have also mastered skills that will impact how you live your life. Skills such as self respect, confidence, goal planning, commitment, and consistency are all key components we strive to impart to all our clients.

Experienced Students

Drivers with previous experience will go through an assessment process to determine what level they're working at and how we can best work to improve their skills and understanding. We will take a look at harness and carriage suitability, reinsmanship skills, evaluate general driving skills and comprehension to get a feel for your general understanding of foundational driving concepts and theories. We need to get to know you as much as you need to get to know us! We encourage drivers with previous experience to take advantage of this assessment period to ask as many questions as they can, clarify concepts and terminology, etc. We know that moving barns and changing coaches can be stressful and confusing so we try to be sensitive to those feelings and maintain an open and approachable atmosphere.

Beginner Students

New students with little or no driving experience will learn the basics while accompanied in the carriage by an experienced driver. The beauty of learning to drive in our program is that you will always have an experienced set of hands sitting next to you to provide guidance and support as you get comfortable. New drivers will also master the process of harnessing and hitching with guidance and support from their coach and a groom.

Lesson horses may be available for beginngers.

We encourage all new clients to come meet us, take a tour of our facility, and watch a lesson with students of a similar experience level to get a feel for what to expect from our coaching style.

Driving Lesson | $75 +HST

Solo or Duo

Whether you’re new to driving or looking to polish your competition skills, we find that a one hour lesson is the most productive. For beginners, the the lesson will include everything from harnessing and hitching to cooling out and unharnessing.

For those with driving experience looking to work on a specific competitive element, we offer dressage or pleasure driving lessons on-site at Edenview and marathon or cones lessons at our sister facility, Iverstone Equestrian Park, in Fenelon Falls.
