If you want to learn horse riding, this is the best place to learn. My daughter has been horseback riding for a year, and she loves it. If I can, I will give them more 5 star.

Sam and Socks Riding School Sanctuary is a non-profit organization in Gilroy, CA, dedicated to fostering meaningful friendships between horses and individuals of all abilities. Through private and group riding lessons, as well as bonding sessions, the program emphasizes confidence-building, trust, and communication skills in a supportive environment.
Located on 85 private acres with access to trail riding at nearby Harvey Bear State Park, Sam and Socks utilizes a team of horses with unique stories and backgrounds, training them to be sensitive lesson horses. The organization operates under four core principles: connecting, caring, coaching, and confidence building, and welcomes volunteers to assist with stable management and horse care.
