About Us

Howdy howdy! I’m Cowboy Rhed Locke, a passionate western rider and instructor dedicated to helping riders of all ages and experience levels build confidence, connection, and solid horsemanship skills. I focus on creating a safe, supportive, and fun learning environment where both riders and horses can thrive.

I offer lessons on well-trained, reliable lesson horses who are carefully matched to each rider’s goals and comfort level. Whether you’re just starting out, getting back in the saddle, or looking to refine your technique, I’ll tailor each session to help you progress at your own pace.

From basic riding skills and groundwork to pattern work, trail readiness, and show preparation, my goal is to help you become a confident, well-rounded horseperson — and to make sure you enjoy every ride along the way!
