Private Lesson

Connecting Horses & Riders

About Me

My name is Kayla Fewkes. I am a San Jose State graduate with two personal horses of my own and a main focus on barrel racing. My love of riding and working with horses sparked at a young age. I started out learning and competing in English and jumping. Over my 15+ years of experience under several different trainers in the Bay Area, I have gained knowledge of many disciplines. From western pleasure, hunter jumping, barrel racing, and cutting; I have well rounded knowledge and a versatile teaching style. I take pride in being able to teach horse lovers how to become confident and progressive riders in order to improve their skills and achieve their goals. Contact me for lessons and/or training!

Happy Clients

My daughter has been coming here almost a year and she really enjoys it! Her instructor Kayla is very knowledgeable and has taught her a lot! They teach you how to groom and tack up your horse as well. Great stable for lessons!

This is exactly the kind of place that reminds you there is still good in the world. My daughter has been attending Blue Banner for weekly pony rides with Kayla. Not only are the rides developmentally appropriate and COVID-19 safe (county approved activity and all cleanliness precautions taken), but the community is amazing! The trainers and owners answer all of my 4.5 year old's crazy questions with a smile. They educate and inform while making you feel like family. They let kids be kids while teaching them to respect the horses and the boarding community there too. It's been a gift to have a place like this to go to when everything else is chaos. We'd move in if we could LOL! Highly recommend! (Be sure to ask about birthday parties and camps too, obviously more options when we're not in a pandemic.)

Brought my kids to this stable for lessons and they had the best time! The instructor was patient, they had a wide variety of horses to choose from and explained the entire process of grooming a horse all the way to riding. We can't waIt to go back! Also, the owners greeted us and are extremely friendly and hands on. We'd definitely be going back!!
