Heart-breaking Experience\r
\r
Our nine year-old daughter was treated disrespectfully and inappropriately by the teacher/owner, Marleta Lillejord. Between our daughter's third and last riding lesson, I called Marleta to discuss her learning disabilities which require more patience. You can imagine we were shocked at what occurred at her following/last lesson. She wasn't offered water during her long & hot lesson, she rode for longer than she should have, she was yelled at rudely in front of other children and parents, she wasn't given any help when she reached her frustration point and began to profusely cry, she was spoken to in a ""bully""-type manner, and wasn't shown any patience or good teaching practices. Marleta's teaching manner and demeanor were appalling and if we had continued these lessons, she would've broken our daughter's spirit. We warn prospective parents to be careful!\r
