There's certainly a place near you. Google, the yellow pages, services section of the paper's want ads, craig's list...lots of ways to find out.
Find a local tack shop or feed and seed store. They're sure to have information on local riding schools and instructors.
Be warned....if you're new to horses, they CAN be highly addictive. As I have most certainly learned. My riding lessons, and time spent
with the horses, is certainly the best time I spend out of each week. The only thing keeping me from owning my own horse already
is simply a matter of it being logistically impossible for me. I have no place to keep even one.
