windwood equestrian

I have always been a horse lover and wanted to finally fulfill my dreams of riding! I came to Windwood with relatively no riding experience at all and now I feel confident in my abilities. Riding at Windwood has been a complete pleasure. The lessons are challenging and by an awesome trainer who was able to help me overcome my fears. I would suggest Windwood to anyone who is serious about learning real riding skills.

I have been riding for over 12 years and when I decided a needed to find a new barn for my horse I began looking at every barn in the Birmingham area. Once I found Windwood I knew this was where I needed to be. Windwood is a top notch facility and nothing in Alabama is comparable. The trainers are dedicated to each student and have an extensive background in riding. The staff and other families which board and ride at Windwood are welcoming and encouraging in everything you do. Do not take my word for what Windwood has to offer, come and take a tour. You will be blown away and ready to join the family.www.windwoodequestrian.com

Me, my wife, and another couple bought a riding lesson with these guys via Groupon. Trying to set up a time to get out there proved nearly impossible. We would call, literally a few times a week, and was never able to do more than leave a message. Then, they would call us back 2 or 3 days after our proposed riding time to say they were booked that time anyway. Very unprofessional on the phone as well. We eventually go fed up after a month of this and got our money back through Groupon. :/

My boyfriend and I purchased a Groupon for a Couples Riding Lesson and Glass of Wine afterwards. We had also purchased this for another couple for a birthday gift. We all planned to go together. We were instructed to contact the Riding Program Trainer. The only problem is that she takes a week or two to respond to every contact you try to make with her, e-mail or phone call. We tried to set up an appointment for month. It was very difficult scheduling an appointment for four people when you are not getting adequate information about availability and times or getting a call back. Our entire group felt like we were not a top priority for Windwood Equestrian and eventually asked for a refund from the Groupon company because it just wasn't worth it anymore to us.
