Eillian and her staff stand far above the rest. She is organized and teaches the kids safety first. My daughter spent 3 weeks at her camp last year and will be signing up for lessons soon. Eillian’s facility has things to do for children no matter their skill level. The petting zoo gave the kids a unique look at farm life and the responsibilities involved in caring for farm animals. I can not say enough good things about our experiences here!

I can’t recommend Rosaire’s enough. I work in Sarasota for 2 months out of the year and have been riding for 15 years, on and off. Mostly hunter/jumper, and started with an eventing coach a year ago. I really wanted to take lessons while I was here this year and found Rosaire’s online. I’m now nearing the end of my 10 weeks in Sarasota, and I can’t imagine my stay without this place. Rosaire’s has become like a second home — I wish I could go every day! Ellian Rosaire is a phenomenal teacher, and her lesson horses, of which she has many, are all impeccably trained. I am blown away by how safe, obedient, fit, and talented her horses are. She understands each of them so deeply, and is able to match rider to horse brilliantly. I brought some of my colleagues to the barn for beginner lessons just for fun, and Ellian taught them beautifully on very safe, quiet animals. Several returned, and one of them even decided to continue with private lessons. As a more advanced student, I’ve been working on my lead changes over jumps with Ellian. She is patient but firm, and diagnoses problems quickly. She teaches a huge range of styles, both English and Western. Not to mention she has many adorable critters to play with :). Wonderful barn for riders of all skill levels and ages. I really wish I’d had a barn like this growing up, and I’m so sad I have to leave soon. Patronize this inspiring place and get ready to learn something new with every visit and have a great time!

I’ve been taking riding lessons for a few weeks at Rosaires. I’m in my mid 50’s and rode horses when I was younger, but never took a lesson or rode English. My lessons were fantastic! If you want an expert to teach you or your child, this is the place!

Love this place, and Ms. Ellian. She’s so great with the kids. My 11 year old girl was very scared. She started out on pony being led… now she on horse cantering! I took my 14 year old son just to be with her and he loves it! We will continue to be a part of this wonderful place for our children! It’s awesome!

Highly recommended. We live in NY and visit Sarasota quite frequently. Our girls are aged 6.5 and 10 and both absolutely love Rosaire’s Riding Academy. Both have been riding in the NY area and in Florida at other places. They learned so much in one day — We were astounded when we came to pick them up and they were riding bareback, which neither had ever tried before. We asked the girls for their opinions of Rosaire’s and our 10 year old said: «You learn the basics of taking care of a horse and get a lot more riding time and interaction with the horses than anywhere else I’ve been to. Also while you are not riding there is a fantastic playground and a really nice petting zoo with different animals that you can interact with. The instructors are extremely nice and give you lots of pointers on how to ride better.» Our six year old agreed and said: «I really liked how much time I had with the horses and how I got to learn how to do everything with them.» Their description of the camp sounded packed with activities — pony workshop, pony riding, horseback riding, bareback riding, pony obstacle course(they led the ponies ok through the obstacles), petting zoo, etc. They did not want to leave and wanted to go back, and we’ve already booked our next visit. Definitely worth checking out this wonderful spot.

I am a fan, Rosaire’s has been good for my family. Ms. Elian puts the kids first and I feel safe with my children in her hands. She is good teacher and a good role model. Rosaire’s is old Florida, not fancy but safe and wholesome. Good summer camp opportunity and good weekly riding lessons. We started by having a pony ride and knew what to expect. No surprises.
