I started riding at Benchmark June of 2012. Kip and the entire Benchmark Team are the most supportive, fun, and nicest group of people I know. Everyone supports one another both at shows and at "home" which is great! It is a VERY horse friendly barn which is important. Here the horses come first. There are only 16 stalls which is nice as the program VERY individualized. I also like that lessons are about an hour long and normally you lesson multiple times a week which is great! My only regret in regards to riding at Benchmark is that I did not come to Benchmark sooner.... Literally in a month my riding improved tremendously. Kip is able to phrase things in a way that really make sense to me and I understand. She is also the most patient and nicest trainer and person I know..
I disagree with Jenna Harrington, the other review. The price at Benchmark the same or a even a little less in some cases, compared to the other show barns in the surrounding areas.
