Join our semi private lesson program. Beginners receive 4-8 private lessons before being placed with another student.
We are very excited to announce our new location at:
17479 Dry Mill Rd. Leesburg, VA. 20175
This newly remodeled barn is attached to an older pony barn. We have 9 stalls, a large 100x200 outdoor arena and 6 paddocks. 3 of which are quite large. A quiet little creek runs through the farm and we are surrounded by other horse farms. 20/20 Horsemanship aka TEAM 20/20 and LKAcademy of Horsemanship, our soon to be virtual program are excited for the possibilities and expansion this facility will provide.
"The stable itself shall not represent the horse or the quality of training. The horse, along with his demeanor, is an accurate assessment of the quality of care and instruction provided."

20/20 is an instruction based farm. We offer lessons in horsemanship, riding, natural horsemanship and ground work.
If you are interested in fox hunting, please contact us to see how we can help. We are right in the middle of Loudoun Hunt.
This wonderful location is less than 5 minutes to almost anywhere in Leesburg. Loudoun County HS is right down the street, along with at least two other public schools.
PLEASE NOTE: WE DO NOT OFFER TRAIL RIDES TO THE PUBLIC. We offer lessons to regular, weekly students. We no longer offer one time lessons.
For boarders, the W & OD trail is across the street, with a separate horse trail.
We offer a whole horse approach to learning how to horseback ride. All students are taught herd behavior and body language. They also learn how to use their body language to engage with the horse. The benefits of working with the horse, in hand, on the ground, are immense. Ground work sets you up as leader in your horse’s eyes, it creates a bond that simply horseback riding alone, cannot create, and it keeps you safe while determining if your horse is mentally ready for the day’s task.
Of course, our equestrians also learn to properly ‘catch’ their horse, in a field or in a stall, lead correctly, groom and all aspects of tacking up.
We teach riding lessons from age 6 and up. All levels are welcome. We also love teaching adult equestrians and specialize in those adults returning to riding lessons after a number of years away from the sport.
20/20 Horsemanship is a riding school, owned and operated by Loretta Arey. We cater to riders who are serious and desire learning about the horse, while on his back or on the ground.
“Good Horsemanship and a less talented rider will excel compared to a talented rider with poor Horsemanship.”
If you are interested in lessons, please
contact us so we can schedule an Introductory Session. Introductory sessions are not evaluations of
riding skills.
Our barn is a private riding center, therefore appointments are needed. If you would like to watch a lesson, that can be arranged.
At this time we do not have any stalls available for boarding. Nor do we offer trail rides to the public
