Foot Forward Equine

Foot Forward Equine runs horseback riding and horsemanship lessons for all ages at an indoor facility in Langley Township, BC. The program is built horsemanship-first — riders learn to handle, read and care for the horse as well as ride it — and lessons are structured to be safe, professional and genuinely fun for every skill level, from a child’s very first time near a horse to an experienced rider working toward a specific goal.

Because lessons run at an indoor location, the schedule holds through Lower Mainland rain and dark winter afternoons, which matters for families booking a weekly after-school slot. The barn is at 24556 32nd Avenue in Langley Township and draws riders from Surrey, Langley and Abbotsford and across the Fraser Valley. Lessons start from $50.

Programs at Foot Forward Equine

• Riding and horsemanship lessons — safe, skill-building lessons for all ages and levels, focused on fun and foundation rather than rushing riders ahead.
• Horse training — programs tailored to the individual horse and rider, with availability for horse starting, restarts and tune-ups.
• Bit fitting — professional bit and bridle fitting, so the horse is comfortable and the rider’s aids are clear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What ages can take riding lessons at Foot Forward Equine?

All ages. Lessons are suited to riders of every skill level, and complete beginners are welcome with no prior riding experience.

At 24556 32nd Avenue, Langley Township, BC V4W 1X7. Families travel in from Surrey, Langley, Abbotsford and the wider Fraser Valley.

Are the lessons indoors?

Yes. There is an indoor location, so lessons carry on year-round through BC rain and short winter days instead of being cancelled by weather.

How much do horseback riding lessons cost?

From $50. Contact Foot Forward Equine directly for current rates, lesson lengths and package or lesson-block options.

Does my child need their own horse?

No. Lessons are available for riders who do not own a horse. Separate training services — starting, restarts and tune-ups — are offered for families who do have their own horse.

What is horsemanship, and why does it come first here?

Horsemanship is the ground work: leading, grooming, tacking up and reading the horse’s behaviour. Teaching it first produces safer, more confident riders, which is why it anchors the program rather than being treated as an extra.

What should my child wear to a first lesson?

A closed-toe boot with a small heel and long pants are the usual starting point. Confirm helmet and footwear requirements with Foot Forward Equine when you book your first lesson.
