Take a 60 minute group lesson and ride in a new Devoucoux saddle! We will have Level 3 Flat and Level 3 Jump Classes focused on general lesson concepts but you will be riding in a luxury saddle. Before and after your lesson you are welcome to come hang out in the viewing room and enjoy refreshments and Devoucoux education with their local saddle expert. 

Non riding guests are also welcome to come see the saddles and learn about Devoucoux. View and touch the various models, learn the difference between them and about some of the Devoucoux technology. If you are interested in purchasing you have options- a new custom saddle fitted to you and your horse either paid in full or with the option to finance or a used saddle that closely fits you and your horse, checking as many boxes as possible. MRC guests purchasing new saddles will receive additional Devoucoux products! All the information will be available to you onsite.

ABOUT DEVOUCOUX
Devoucoux is wholeheartedly dedicated to the partnership between horse and rider, and has been working to promote this since 1985. Their saddles and accessories require the expertise of six different trades (master crafts) within the saddlery profession. Cutting, preparing, assembling, putting together, machine stitching and hand stitching result in a harmonious balance – a constantly evolving savoir-faire that gives each saddle model elegance, expertise and comfort. Innovative by nature, they have no qualms about pairing up the latest technology with craftsmanship. Whether for D3D panels or veg-tanned leather, they are constantly investing in their process and research.

A horse paired to your ability, an instructor dedicated to our program, 60 minutes of riding time, a Devoucoux saddle to ride in and a beautiful facility to do it all at!
