Who thrives here Ages 6–16
Smiling Faces Equestrian sits in the upper-elementary to middle-school window where specialization starts to mean something. Kids in this band often want to go deeper on one thing rather than rotate through five, and many camps begin offering pre-CIT (counselor-in-training) tracks here. The right equestrian fit at this age depends on whether the child wants more autonomy or still wants the safety of a structured rhythm.

- Who runs Smiling Faces Equestrian?
