Shawna Dahl and Sheryl Leisure are combining their talents and experience with horses to
open the Equine Art & Learning Center.
Dahl provides Basic Horsemanship classes including all levels of Riding Lessons and
Workshops. Foal Handling, Trail Safety Preparation, Bomb Proofing and many other activities are also on the
roster of future events. Seventeen horses from stud stallions, breeding mares, foals and horses that can be
used for riding lessons can be found on the 10 acre ranch.
Dahl also breeds horses that can bee seen at the ranch. For information on horse
