Mary Jane’s endurance riding program expands riders’ level of physical fitness & state of mental calm to better prepare for long hours on the trails. Yoga classes can be scheduled into the riding program. With over 20 years of combined yoga and riding Mary Jane says, “Through yoga my riding has become a potent energizing yet meditative practice in itself.”
