Wichita Riding Academy Inc.

Help us welcome Sidney to WRA! 💙

We’re excited to announce that Sidney is doing a trial run here at Wichita Riding Academy, today through September 5th!

A recent Class of 2026 graduate, Sidney attended the same equine college as our very own Kaytelin, where they were classmates and teammates on the show team. If Kaytelin vouches for her, you know she’s going to be a fantastic addition to the barn.

Here is the best part: While some of our current instructors specialize in specific programs, Sidney is stepping in to teach every single one of our lesson types during her trial. Her schedule is wide open for:

Introductory Lessons

Tiny Tots

Mini Lessons

Regular 30-Minute Lessons

If you've been struggling to find an opening or waiting for a specific lesson type to become available, this is your perfect opportunity to get on the calendar!

We’d love to fill up her book and show her some WRA love as she tries out the academy before making her move to Wichita.

👉 Book your lesson today to come meet her!

Let’s give Sidney a big Wichita Riding Academy welcome!
