Experienced tutor in Horseback riding in El Cajon, Elizabeth offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Elizabeth is professional and relatable. She understands the psychology of the horse and builds rider’s confidence through clear process of learning. She has taught me so much about riding and working in partnership with my horses over the years! I love taking lessons from her!

Elizabeth Johnson has a gift for quickly assessing both the horse and rider in determining what each needs to bring out the best in each other! Great teacher!

She is incredibly intuitive when it comes to horses. Dressage is a way of life. She is wonderful with beginners. She is the instructor you need to help you reach your riding goals and realize your dreams in this discipline.

Instructs to the level of the student and/or horse in clear, upbeat manner; makes the student work hard in a positive way.

Elizabeth is a very versatile instructor, who can help riders of any level. She focuses on improving basic horsemenship and the rider's ability to school their own horse. She maintains a safe and structured learning environment at all times. I have been with her for three years and my understanding of proper techique, as well as competition results have improved steadily under her direction.

I started training with Elizabeth back in 1984. She is a superb trainer and very positive in her training. I think she is definitely one of the best around and I highly recommend her!!

Elizabeth cares for both the horse and the rider. From the very beginning I have been at ease working with her through the levels. From the warm up and into the lesson work she tailors the lesson to the individual needs of the horse and rider that day making every lesson a triumph for that day, one you ride away from feeling good about the work that was done. Elizabeth is a wonderfully adept, knowledgeable and empathic teacher who pitches her teaching so that it is both challenging but encouraging and enabling. I feel like my riding technique and confidence both improve under her generous guidance and look forward to twice weekly our lessons,

Elizabeth is very perceptive about your horse's personality and works with you to get the best out of you and your horse. She gives her whole attention to the lesson and is super creative about finding ways to explain that connect with the individual. It is never one size fits all!

She is down to earth and kind, she is experienced enough to know exactly what the rider is doing with their body and how it is effecting the horse and she can explain it to you in real time and you can feel the difference in your connection to the horse. I have had many wonderful lessons and learned so much from Elizabeth and her lesson horse Cassie is a dream to work with.
